Paranoid Park
The Female Gaze
July 26 - August 9, 2018
At once a dreamlike portrait of teen alienation and a boldly experimental work of film narrative, Paranoid Park follows a withdrawn high-school skateboarder as he struggles to make sense of his involvement in an accidental death.
At once a dreamlike portrait of teen alienation and a boldly experimental work of film narrative, Paranoid Park finds Gus Van Sant at the height of his powers. A withdrawn high-school skateboarder (Gabe Nevins) struggles to make sense of his involvement in an accidental death. He recalls past events across tides of memory, and expresses his feelings in a diary—which is, in effect, the movie we are watching. The extraordinary skating scenes, filmed by cinematographers Rain Li and Christopher Doyle in a lyrical mixture of Super 8 and 35mm, depict their subjects soaring in space, momentarily free of the earthly troubles of adolescence. An NYFF45 selection.
