Film Comment Talk: For Your Consideration: Actors of Color

Film Comment Talk: For Your Consideration: Actors of Color

February 6, 2020
60 minutes

The achievements of actors and actresses of color have long gone under-recognized in Hollywood and beyond—a fact that has been keenly felt for many years now. For the latest Film at Lincoln Center Talk hosted by Film Comment magazine, we’re gathering together to discuss and celebrate the craft of our favorite performers of color from current cinema, as well as key figures and overlooked talents from film history. Film Comment Editor-in-Chief Nicolas Rapold moderates a roundtable critical appreciation featuring Devika Girish, Assistant Editor of Film Comment; Soraya Nadia McDonald, writer for The Undefeated and contributing editor at Film Comment; and Mayukh Sen, James Beard Award–winning food and culture writer.


Online RSVPs are now at capacity. Skip the box office by showing your print-at-home ticket (printed or on your mobile device) to the theater usher. You must show up at least 30 minutes in advance or your seat may be forfeited.

Please note: Walk-ups will still be accepted; tickets to be distributed on a space-available basis.
