CU’s Denver Area Young Alumni

Sales for this event are now closed.

Again this year, CU’s Denver Young Alumni will be a sponsor of the Starz Denver Film Festival.  We have chosen to buy a block of tickets to the film Solitary Man with Michael Douglas, Danny DeVito, Susan Sarandon and Mary-Louise Parker.  And…Richard Schiff, of West Wing fame, will be in attendance.

Michael Douglas plays a philandering ex-car dealer who’s trying to keep up his front as a smooth-talking man of the world even as he grapples with midlife self-doubt and financial ruin.  This film was directed by Brian Koppelman and David Levien who previously co-wrote both Ocean’s Thirteen and The Girlfriend Experience for Steven Soderbergh.

Tickets are just $15.

There is also a post-film party at Shag Lounge, where other festival talent (Ed Harris, Dixie Carter, Hal Holbrook) are sure to make an appearance.  Tickets are normally $10 at the door, but yours are included in your $15 film ticket!

For more information, or to purchase more than four tickets, please contact Ashley Hyyppa at 303-693-5113 or hyyppa@comcast.net.
