Sedona News – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story”, showing Jan. 31-Feb. 6 at the Mary D. Fisher and Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatres.
This star-studded tribute brings into focus the dazzling, complex period of Liza Minnelli’s life starting in the 1970s, just after the tragic death of her mother Judy Garland — as she confronts a range of personal and professional challenges on the way to becoming a bona fide legend.
Over these years, Liza seeks out extraordinary mentors: Kay Thompson, Fred Ebb, Charles Aznavour, Halston, and Bob Fosse.
With insightful participation from a coterie of colleagues such as Michael Feinstein, Mia Farrow, Ben Vereen, Joel Grey and the late Chita Rivera, along with the revelatory participation by the star herself, the film illuminates the contradiction of Liza Minnelli: her privilege and struggle, strength and vulnerability, unreal expectations and towering talent — the friction of which fueled her stunning rise, resilience and her enduring place as one of the greatest, most original performers in the history of entertainment.
“Liza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher and Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatres Jan. 31-Feb. 6. Showtimes will be Friday, Sunday and Thursday, Jan. 31, Feb. 2 and 6 at 4:00 p.m.; Saturday, Feb. 1 at 12:30 p.m.; and Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Feb. 3, 4 and 5 at 7:00 p.m.
