The Cold Blue
56th New York Film Festival
September 28 - October 14, 2018
Built primarily from color 16mm images shot in the spring of 1943 by director William Wyler and his crew on 8th Air Force bombing raids over Germany and strategic locations in occupied France, The Cold Blue is filtered through the spoken recollections of nine veterans.
Q&As with Erik Nelson and Catherine Wyler on September 29 (joined by composer Richard Thompson) & 30
Erik Nelson’s new film is built primarily from color 16mm images shot in the spring of 1943 by director William Wyler and his crew on 8th Air Force bombing raids over Germany and strategic locations in occupied France. Wyler shot over 15 hours of footage on a series of raids with the 91st bomber group, from which he crafted his 1943 film The Memphis Belle. From the remaining raw footage, Nelson has crafted an experience of a different kind, filtered through the spoken recollections of nine veterans, among the last survivors of the War in Europe.
Following The Cold Blue is The Memphis Belle: A Story of a Flying Fortress. Get tickets here.
