Spend an evening in Fargo! Join us for an evening with Fargo co-star Kristin Rudrüd (Jean Lundegaard, the kidnapped wife in the movie). Along with showing scenes from the film, Kristin will talk about fleeing the violent extremes of life as an actor in New York City to hide in her home town of Fargo, only to be found by Joel and Ethan Cohn and cast into the hysterically violent extremes of life in their movie of the same name.

Kristin grew up under the tutelage of Rhoda and Dr. Delmar Hansen, in Fargo, North Dakota. Moving to New York, she was cast by Peter Hall in his Broadway production of Amadeus. She's worked for Nikos Psacharopoulos at the Williamstown Theatre festival with Christopher Reeve, Colleen Dewhurst, Richard Dreyfuss and Blythe Danner. Films scheduled for Spring 1999 release are Dairy Queens, with Kirstie Alley and Herman U.S.A..
