About the event
May December is a 2023 American psychological black comedy drama film directed by Todd Haynes from a screenplay by Samy Burch, based on a story by Burch and Alex Mechanik and stars Natalie Portman as an actress who travels to meet and study the life of Gracie (Julianne Moore), a sex offender she is set to play in a film. Gracie has been in a 24-year relationship with her husband Joe (Charles Melton), which began when he was 13 years old and she was 36.
While not a direct adaptation, the film mirrors the Mary Kay Letourneau scandal.
