She Was Nice to Mice

No one would ever confuse the cinetrix with a corporate shill, but I have to plug an event tomorrow afternoon that just happens to take place at a certain coffee conglomerate's Park City location. Indie actresses extraordinaire Lili Taylor and Ally Sheedy will be reading at St*rb*ck's at 1pm on Sunday. But it's what they'll be reading that makes this midday respite from filmgoing a must.

Taylor throws down with selections from the edgy Charles Bukowski novel Factotum — the actress stars in the film adaptation, which debuts at Sundance this year. And Sheedy? Well, she'll be reading from She Was Nice to Mice, a book written by one Alexandra Elizabeth Sheedy when she was all of 12. The clever and moving novel [a personal fave] gives a mouse-eye view of "the other side of Elizabeth I's character never before revealed by previous historians." Hearing the grown-up Sheedy read her pubescent prose promises to be a rare treat. Go!

[And if someone has any of the movie reviews Sheedy reportedly penned for the Times and the Voice when she was a kid, send 'em along.]
