Hello Everyone.

MOTHER AND CHILD, the new film starring Annette Bening, Naomi Watts and Kerry Washington, was directed by Rodrigo Garcia – director of the films THINGS YOU CAN TELL JUST BY LOOKING AT HER and NINE LIVES as well as episodes of some incredible television shows like THE SOPRANOS, SIX FEET UNDER and IN TREATMENT. We hope you’ll come out to see this new film which Rex Reed has given a 100% review – stating, “A flawless film of heartrending realism about the eternal chord that binds parents and children and the emptiness when they are separated.”

Synopsis for MOTHER AND CHILD: “Three women’s lives share a common core: they have all been profoundly affected by adoption. Karen placed a baby for adoption at age 14 and has been haunted ever since by the daughter she never knew. Elizabeth grew up as an adopted child; she’s a bright and ambitious lawyer, but a flinty loner in her personal life. Lucy is just embarking with her husband on the adoption odyssey, hoping for the opportunity to become parents.” (Sony Picture Classics)

PLEASE GIVE will stick around for another week…audiences are loving it!

We hope to see you soon!
Jonathan

About Jonathan McNeal

Jonathan McNeal, a graduate of Wright State's Motion Picture Production program, has been managing THE NEON in downtown Dayton since the Fall of 2001. Having grown up in a small town in northeast Ohio, the idea of an independent movie theater that showed hard-to-find films seemed like something that could only be found in a major metropolis. Upon moving to Dayton in the early 1990's, finding THE NEON was a was like finding a new home.
McNeal's film work includes the documentary of Dayton's beloved drag troupe - THE RUBI GIRLS. The doc premiered in San Francisco in 2003 and played across the country and as far away as Australia. The film continues to be played at night clubs and on college campuses as an educational and outreach tool.
McNeal himself has been a part of the performance troupe since 1997.
