Free Talk: Jane Campion
59th New York Film Festival
September 24 - October 10, 2021
The legendary New Zealand director (The Power of the Dog, NYFF59) partakes in an extended conversation with filmmaker Sofia Coppola (On the Rocks, NYFF58) about the latest entry in Campion’s masterful, decades-spanning oeuvre.
This free talk takes place on Saturday, October 2nd at 4pm in the Amphitheater of the Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center.
Following her Best Director win at this year’s Venice Film Festival, Jane Campion returns to NYFF with her first feature since 2009’s Bright Star: The Power of the Dog, the Centerpiece selection of NYFF59. Known for her incisive portraits of womanhood, Campion turns her lens to masculinity in this new film, which adapts Thomas Savage’s 1967 novel of the same name. The results are thrilling: The Power of the Dog is a mesmerizing, psychologically rich variation on the American western, and a compassionate examination of repressed sexuality and the fragility of patriarchy.
We are thrilled to welcome the legendary New Zealand director for an extended conversation with filmmaker Sofia Coppola (On the Rocks, NYFF58) about this latest entry in Campion’s masterful, decades-spanning career.
