The Extra Man follows Louis Ives (Paul Dano), a lonely dreamer who heads to New York City and finds job at an environmental magazine where he encounters an entrancing co-worker, Mary (Katie Holmes). Louis rents a room in the ramshackle apartment of Henry Harrison (Kevin Kline), a penniless, wildly eccentric and brilliant playwright. When Henry’s not dancing alone to obscure music or singing operettas, he’s performing  the duties of an “extra man,” a social escort for the wealthy widows of Manhattan high society. The two men develop a volatile mentorship, which leads to a series of urban adventures. The film screens on Friday, September 3 at 7 p.m.; Saturday, September 4 at 3:30 p.m. and 8 p.m.; Sunday, September 5 at 1:30 p.m. and 6 p.m.; and Monday, September 6 at 1:30 p.m. and 6 p.m. Admission is $6 for seniors, University of Miami alumni, faculty, non UM-students, and staff. General admission is $8. Cash only. Free for UM students. For more information, visit www.cosfordcinema.com or call 305-284-4861.
