NYFF 2016 Live Roundtable

Friday night lights: five critics and editors discuss the surprises at this year’s festival

The fanfare of the 54th New York Film Festival may have officially wrapped on Saturday, but the films themselves live on—so let’s talk about them. As part of an aptly named “Festival Wrap” free talk, several of Film Comment‘s frequent contributors and editors recently came together before a live audience to reflect on the highlights of a robust NYFF slate. Listen below to the full conversation before these films make the rounds in the coming months. The panel includes FC columnist Margaret Barton-Fumo, critic K. Austin Collins, MOMI programmer and FC columnist Eric Hynes, and Metrograph programmer Aliza Ma, as well as Film Comment Digital Editor Violet Lucca and Editor-in-Chief Nicolas Rapold.

This story is part of the September-October 2016 issue of Film Comment.
