#486 - Emma Stone & Yorgos Lanthimos on Bleat
Listen now
Description
We recently welcomed actress Emma Stone and director Yorgos Lanthimos to the New York Film Festival for the U.S. premiere of Bleat, a Spotlight selection in this year’s festival, for a post-screening Q&A with NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. Director Yorgos Lanthimos and star Emma Stone have worked together before, but never in black-and-white on a remote Greek island with a herd of goats. In this entrancing, wordless collaboration, Stone gives a mesmerizing performance as a young widow who, along with her late husband (Damien Bonnard), embarks on a singularly unclassifiable journey through sex, death, and resurrection. Showing for the first time since its Athens premiere last year and designed never to be presented with a recorded soundtrack, this unique 35mm screening of the silent film featured live accompaniment by an ensemble of musicians and a choir, performing pieces by J.S. Bach, Knut Nystedt, and Toshio Hosokawa. Tickets to the New York Film Festival are moving fast! Get up-to-date information on all available tickets on a daily basis by visiting filmlinc.org/tix.
