Win Tix To See Zach Braff’s Wish I Was Here

 

Chances are  if you are reading this you have seen Garden StateScrubs star Zach Braff’s 2004 updating of The Graduate for the indie-rock generation, starring Natalie Portman as The Biggest Shins Fan On Earth. Or at least you know about it. Wish I Was Here is Braff’s crowd-funded follow-up. IMDB summarizes the plot thusly:

Wish I Was Here is the story of Aidan Bloom, a struggling actor, father and husband, who at 35 is still trying to find his identity; a purpose for his life. He winds up trying to home school his two children when his father can no longer afford to pay for private education and the only available public school is on its last legs. Through teaching them about life his way, Aidan gradually discovers some of the parts of himself he couldn’t find.”

Kate Hudson co-stars as his love interest and The Shins, Bon Iver and Cat Power provide the soundtrack. What’s not to like, right? We have a handful of passes to see it at the Ritz East this week.
