/Film Boston: Interview With Mark And Jay Duplass, Directors Of Cyrus; Free Tickets To Cyrus Screening On Wednesday (6/23)
By David Chen/June 19, 2010 6:00 am EST
After the break, a hilarious interview with Jay and Mark Duplass, the directors of Cyrus (at least, it was hilarious for us). Plus, your chance to get free tickets to a screening of Cyrus this Wednesday at the Boston Commons AMC at 7 PM.
Press days can be challenging affairs. Oftentimes, movie studios put the talent in one room for a day full of interviews with a constant, revolving door of entertainment journalists. Under these circumstances it’s possible for anyone to lose their mind a little bit.
Since I’d already interviewed Mark before (a Sundance interview which I encourage you to check out), I gave the brothers permission to relax and cut loose during my time with them. Hit the jump to see the result. Cyrus is in New York and LA this weekend, and expands wide next week.
Again, the details are:
Wednesday, June 23rd, 7 PM
AMC Loews Boston Commons 19
175 Tremont Street
Boston, MA 02111

Please note: Remember to arrive early as screenings are always overbooked to ensure a full theater. Seating is first come-first served, and is not guaranteed. However, if you show up at around 6:00pm-6:15pm, you will have a pretty good chance at getting in. Enjoy the free screening!
