WRITING NEW YORK: New York Film Festival Talk

This event is free and open to the public. Seating is first come, first served.

The Writers Guild of America, East

Invites you and guests to attend
our official New York Film Festival Talk

Join the Writers Guild of America, East for a celebration of writers who understand that New York City is more than the quintessential urban landscape, more even than a state of mind. New York is a supporting character in the stories these writers tell. New York is a foil for the other characters in their stories. Those characters have a relationship with New York, an object of affection, consternation, fear and inimitable beauty.

Our official New York Film Festival live talk features J.C. Chandor (MARGIN CALL, A MOST VIOLENT YEAR), Geoffrey Fletcher (PRECIOUS, VIOLET & DAISY), Elisabeth Holm & Gillian Robespierre (OBVIOUS CHILD, LANDLINE) and Steven Zaillian (THE IRISHMAN, GANGS OF NEW YORK). The talk will be moderated by Paul Schrader.
