SVFF presents its Monthly Movie selection for July: the sci-fi comedy Jules. An unusual and unexpected visitor brings together several people living in a small city in rural Western Pennsylvania. Starring Academy Award® winner Ben Kingsley, Emmy nominee Harriet Sansom Harris, and two-time Emmy winner Jane Curtin.
Jules follows Milton (Kingsley) who lives a quiet life of routine in a small western Pennsylvania town, but finds his day upended when a UFO and its extra-terrestrial passenger crash land in his backyard. Before long, Milton develops a close relationship with the extra-terrestrial he calls “Jules.” Things become complicated when two neighbors (Harris and Curtin) discover Jules and the government quickly closes in. What follows is a funny, wildly inventive ride as the three neighbors find meaning and connection later in life – thanks to this unlikely stranger.
