As we are seeing this film festival season return to what we all knew and loved pre-pandemic, we are so excited to have one of the longest-running U.S.-based film festivals return for its 60th year (yes, 60!!). The non-competitive New York Film Festival has a lot of great films, as always, this year which includes multiple films by Hong Sangsoo, a 50th Anniversary screening of “Solaris” complete with a live musical accompaniment, “Master Gardener” by Paul Schrader, and “Decision to Leave” by Park Chan-wook.

“She Said“Another world premiere is coming to NYFF in Maria Schrader’s “She Said.” Based on the book of the same name by New York Times journalists Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey, the reporters who broke the story that changed the world– the allegations of sexual misconduct against Harvey Weinstein. Zoe Kazan and Carey Mulligan star as the two aforementioned reporters who ultimately helped ignite the #MeToo movement.
“All The Beauty And Bloodshed“The winner of the coveted Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival earlier this year, NEON release that will open in select theaters in November. “All The Beauty And Bloodshed” is a film that tells two stories: the life and career of Nan Goldin and the downfall of the Sackler family, the pharmaceutical dynasty Goldin took on in her fight to hold accountable those responsible for the opioid epidemic.
