Guide: Further Tales Of The City
SYNOPSIS:
ARMISTEAD MAUPIN'S FURTHER TALES OF THE CITY stars Olympia Dukakis,
Laura Linney, Billy Campbell, Paul Hopkins, Jackie Burroughs, Whip
Hubley, Mary Kay Place, Henry Czerny and Barbara Garrick in a deliciously
dark adventure mystery that leaps from 28 Barbary Lane to a shack
in Golden Gate Park to a remote island in the Alaskan wilderness.
The miniseries was adapted by Armistead Maupin and James Lecesne
from Maupin's novel "Further Tales of the City." It was
directed by Pierre Gang, produced by Suzanne Girard and executive
produced by Alan Poul, Luc Châtelain and Tim Bevan. Terry
Anderson served as creative consultant.
FURTHER TALES OF THE CITY is set in 1981, four years after "More
Tales of the City" concluded. In this installment Michael Tolliver
(PAUL HOPKINS) pursues cops, cowboys and a closeted movie star while
getting over his breakup with Dr. Jon Fielding (BILLY CAMPBELL),
now working on a cruise ship. Mary Ann Singleton (LAURA LINNEY)
debates marrying her boyfriend Brian (WHIP HUBLEY) while searching
for the big story that will make her a real reporter. Meanwhile,
society columnist Prue Giroux (MARY KAY PLACE) falls for a homeless
man with a sinister past (HENRY CZERNY), socialite DeDe Halcyon
(BARBARA GARRICK) returns from the dead after the Jonestown Massacre,
and landlady Anna Madrigal (0LYMPIA DUKAKIS) meets a new beau with
the help of her brothel-running mother (JACKIE BURROUGHS). As always
in Maupin's work, these seemingly unrelated strands finally connect
in a huge tragic-comic tapestry.
