"Old Joy" is a story of friendship, loss and alienationJan. 5, 2007 KALAMAZOO--Kalamazoo Film Society presents "Old Joy" Friday through Sunday, Jan. 12-14, in the Little Theatre at Western Michigan University.

Written and directed by Kelly Reichardt, "Old Joy" is the story of two old friends, Kurt (Will Oldham) and Mark (Daniel London), who reunite for a weekend camping trip in the Cascade mountains of Oregon. The two men's lives have taken divergent paths--Mark is soon to become a first-time father and Kurt chain-smokes marijuana. "Old Joy" is a minimalist story of friendship, loss and alienation.
