Episode Details

First aired: March 22, 2024.

With NYFF61 Opening Night selection May December, director Todd Haynes brings together his career-long preoccupations-with the nature of performance, the revelatory possibilities of melodrama, and the inner lives of women-to a thrilling, masterful crescendo. To celebrate the North American premiere of May December at NYFF61, we were thrilled to present the U.S. premiere of Image Book, a short film by Haynes exploring the making of his new film, made as part of a commission by the Centre Pompidou for its collection "Ou en etes-vous?" We were thrilled to welcome the Oscar-nominated filmmaker for an extended conversation with playwright and actor Jeremy O. Harris about May December.
