Rebel With a Clause (2025): screening

A grammar guru takes her pop-up grammar advice stand on a rollicking road trip across all 50 states to show that comma fights can bring us closer together in a divided time. Come meet filmmaker Brandt Johnson and the film’s subject, Ellen Jovin! Ellen will set up her acclaimed Grammar Table at the theater 45 minutes before showtime to answer your most pressing grammar questions, resolve long-standing family grammar disputes, and take complaints.

After the screening, please stick around for a Q&A with Brandt and Ellen, followed by a book-signing of Ellen’s national bestseller. This film is a part of our Art11 film series, and is FREE to Art Theatre members.
