Phyllis and Harold is an astoundingly frank journey through a disastrous 59-year-old marriage. Drawing on a lifetime of her family’s home movies and interviews made over 12 years, filmmaker Cindy Kleine mixes reportage, cinema verite, and animation to uncover family secrets and tell a story that could not be revealed publicly as long as her father was alive. Phyllis and Harold delves into the mystery of time passing, the nature of living a life, and the challenges of losing those we love. But it is also a loving, funny expose on the sins of suburbia. Imagine Bergman’s Scenes from a Marriage seen through the prism of I Love Lucy.

Admission is $6 for all University of Miami alumni, faculty, and staff, and free for students. General admission is $8. The film screens on Friday, June 11 at 9 p.m.; Saturday, June 12 at 5:30 p.m. and 9:15 p.m.; and Sunday, June 13 at 9:15 p.m. For more information, visit www.cosfordcinema.com.
