From the Archives - Paul Schrader

For this month's selection from our archives, we're presenting an event from 2006, which coincided with the publication of an essay Paul Schrader wrote for Film Comment entitled “Canon Fodder.” The piece dissected the criteria by which we determine which films deserve to be called the greatest of all time, and on the occasion of its release, Paul Schrader joined New York Film Festival Director of Programming Kent Jones on stage to talk about film canons, Wong Kar Wai, Pauline Kael, and his pick for the greatest of all time, Jean Renoir’s RULES OF THE GAME.
