Making Mr. Right at Triskel Arts Centre, 21 July. Dr. Jeff Peters has made a life-like android called Ulysses. PR executive Frankie is hired to socialise the robot and discovers that he embodies all of the qualities she’s ever wanted in a man.
Dr. Jeff Peters is a clumsy and crass genius whose latest creation is an amazingly life-like android called Ulysses. Savvy PR executive Frankie Stone is hired to socialise this robot. She cannot stand Dr. Peters and yet is shocked to discover that Ulysses embodies all of the qualities she’s ever wanted in a man and starts falling for the android. Susan Seidelman’s third feature is a delightful comedy with a science fiction edge, with winning performances from John Malkovich (as Dr. Peters and Ulysses) and Ann Magnuson (as Frankie Stone).
"A smart, quick witted, wicked and genuinely funny movie.” Chicago Sun-Times
Part of Susan Seidelman Season.
