The Cinema According to Mark Rappaport at Anthology Film Archives Aug. 11-24

Kino Lorber announces THE CINEMA ACCORDING TO MARK RAPPAPORT, a collection of works by the critically-acclaimed director of innovative narrative features and essay films, running at Anthology Film Archives, August 11—24. Programs will screen virtually August 11—24 and in theater August 19—22, the theater’s first-ever split virtual and in person series. Rappaport’s most well-known works—and the focus of the Anthology series—were created in the 1990s and onward, and feature his signature style of cinematic commentary comprised of archival film clips, including ROCK HUDSON’S HOME MOVIES and FROM THE JOURNALS OF JEAN SEBERG (both available on disk and for DSL licensing from GME). In later years, Rappaport refined his indelible approach to the cinematic essay, and created a series of pieces—often focusing on iconic film figures like Jacques Tati, Marcel Dalio, and Sergei Eisenstein—that explore the image of the “star” and the medium of cinema itself.
