The Mary D. Fisher Theatre is proud to present “Train Dreams” showing Nov. 28-Dec. 4.

Based on the beloved novella by Denis Johnson, “Train Dreams” is the moving portrait of Robert Grainier (Golden Globe-nominee Joel Edgerton), whose life unfolds during an era of unprecedented change in early 20th century America.

Orphaned at a young age, Robert grows into adulthood among the towering forests of the Pacific Northwest, where he helps expand the nation’s railroad empire alongside men as unforgettable as the landscapes they inhabit.

After a tender courtship, he marries Gladys (Academy Award-nominee Felicity Jones) and they build a home together, though his work often takes him far from her and their young daughter. When his life takes an unexpected turn, Robert finds beauty, brutality and newfound meaning for the forests and trees he has felled.

An ode to a vanishing way of life, an ever-evolving world, and to the extraordinary possibilities that exist within even the most simple of existences, “Train Dreams” captures a time and place that are now long gone, and the people who built a bridge to a future they could only dream of.

Directed by Academy Award-nominee Clint Bentley, the film also stars Academy Award-nominees William H. Macy and Kerry Condon.
