A PEEK AT 2022
Just this week Jordan Ruimy at World of Reel posted a speculative list of films that could be released and make a splash in what he calls "a landmark year for movies.
I took a gander at the list and landed on a few that seem like possible TFF #49 selections largely based on the director and past associations with TFF. They include:
Damien Chazelle's Babylon
Noah Baumbach's White Noise
Kelly Reichardt's Owl
Alejandro Inarrito's Bardo
Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio
Florian Zeller's The Son
The Dardennes' Tori et Lokita
Other films are expected from directors that have made an appearance at Telluride at least once including: The Way of the Wind (Malick), Women Talking (Polley), Tar (Field), The Whale (Aronofsky), Crimes of the Future (Cronenberg), The Zone of Interest (Glazer), Poor Things (Lanthimos), Amsterdam (Russell), Asteroid City (W. Anderson), The Killer (Fincher and, of course, Killers of the Flower Moon (Scorsese)
