It took me a while to upload this clip from yesterday’s New York Film Festival press conference with A Separation director-writer-producer Asghar Farhadi, moderated by NYFF honcho Scott Foundas.
During a Telluride Film Festival chat Tilda Swinton mentioned her admiration of Farhadi’s About Elly. A questioner at yesterday’s press conference brought it up also. I’ve never seen it so I obviously need to man up and buy the DVD on Amazon.
Here, again, is my rave response to yesterday’s screening. All press screenings and conferences are happening at the Walter Reade theatre on West 65th Street.
