The 56th New York Film Festival continues through October 14th with daily screenings of the most exciting new films from around the world. Every day during the festival we host free NYFF Live talks in our amphitheater, with upcoming events featuring Paul Dano and Zoe Kazan, Alex Ross Perry, Tamara Jenkins, and more.
A highlight from week one was our conversation with legendary documentarian Frederick Wiseman, whose latest Monrovia, Indiana, premiered in the festival’s main slate. The conversation was moderated by Kent Jones.
