The New Yorker - USA (2019-09-30)

(Antfer) #1
The New York Film Festival (Sept. 27-Oct. 13), the city’s main showcase for new movies from around
the world, is also a cornucopia of classics and rediscoveries. This year’s revivals include “The Little Girl
Who Sold the Sun” (1999), by the Senegalese director Djibril Diop Mambéty, about a child working to
survive in Dakar; Luis Buñuel’s Surrealist 1930 film “L’Âge d’Or”; and Frank Borzage’s “Street Angel” (from
1928, above), one of the three films for which Janet Gaynor received the first Oscar for Best Actress.
