Paul Schrader, Uma Thurman, and Michael Imperioli on Oh, Canada | NYFF62

Director Paul Schrader and cast members Uma Thurman and Michael Imperioli discuss Oh, Canada, a Main Slate selection of the 62nd New York Film Festival, with NYFF programmer K. Austin Collins. An an unvarnished, commanding performance, Richard Gere plays Leonard Fife, a celebrated political documentarian who has reached the end of his life. Wracked with cancer, Leonard has agreed to appear in a film by a former protégé (Michael Imperioli) in the hopes of setting the record straight about himself. Cinema becomes a confessional space as Leonard, accompanied by his stalwart wife and former student, Emma (Uma Thurman), excavates his own past, facing down regrets and guilt, and interrogating his own career, personal life, and political courage. Constructed with nonlinear flashbacks featuring Jacob Elordi as a young Leonard, the film passes in and out of different time periods, back to the 1960s, matching the slippery consciousness of its storyteller. Adapted from the book Foregone by Russell Banks, Paul Schrader’s emotionally naked drama feels like a direct address to the viewer, a filmmaker’s reckoning with his formidable status and persona. A Kino Lorber release. More info: http://filmlinc.org Subscribe: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c... Like on Facebook:   / filmlinc   Follow on X:   / filmlinc   Follow on Instagram:   / filmlinc
