Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim on You Can See Everything Oct 19, 2026

Show notes

This week we’re excited to present a conversation from the 64th New York Film Festival with You Can See Everything directors Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, moderated by NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. An NYFF64 Spotlight selection, You Can See Everything is now in theaters, courtesy of A24. In this astounding new high-wire act of self-reflexivity from Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, created in secret, convicted Silicon Valley fraudster Elizabeth Holmes becomes an entirely different kind of camera subject. The 64th New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.

Ken Russell, Vanessa Redgrave, and Mark Kermode on The Devils Oct 11, 2026

Show notes

Welcome to the final daily 64th New York Film Festival podcast. On today’s edition, we present a special two-part conversation in celebration of Ken Russell’s restored, uncensored cut of The Devils playing on 35mm for one week only starting this Friday at Film at Lincoln Center. Russell’s infamous adaptation of Aldous Huxley’s novel, about the apparent possession of a group of nuns after one accuses a priest of collaborating with the devil, is at long last available in its full, uncensored splendor. In 2010, a year prior to his passing, Film at Lincoln Center welcomed Russell for our retrospective Russellmania!, which featured a post-screening conversation on The Devils between the director and Vanessa Redgrave, now available to listen to for the first time. Then, at the 64th New York Film Festival, Mark Kermode joined NYFF Programmer Dan Sullivan to discuss the restoration, the film’s legacy, and how it continues to be embraced by new generations. The 64th New York Film Festival is presented in partnership with Rolex.

DuVernay follows her epochal 2016 documentary 13th with a thrillingly expansive sequel of sorts, which passionately and persuasively details how the tenets of the 14th Amendment, ratified post–Civil War, are now under systematic attack.
