Gene Siskel Film Center Runs and Special Events Chicago premiere! Bruce Wood in person! THE DOOR 2005, Bruce Wood, USA, 92 min. Boasting a Chicago setting, witty dialogue, and a tricky story with a Shyamalan-worthy twist, THE DOOR is the first feature film by Bruce Wood, an SAIC graduate whose paintings and avant-garde shorts have been exhibited worldwide. Softhearted Kent (Bill Ferris) and supercilious Ori (Ryan Martin) are longtime companions, but Kent is reluctant to accept Ori's advice to stick to "our kind." He becomes involved with three friends--a fed-up wife (Katherine Wray), a recent Ph.D. (Karla Magnan), and a struggling stockbroker (Chase Stoeger)--and helps them achieve their dreams of true love, a great job, and financial success, respectively, but then things mysteriously begin to fall apart. Is Kent a con artist, a blundering do-gooder, a misunderstood victim, or something else? DV-CAM video. Director Bruce Wood and members of the cast and crew will be present for audience discussion.
