If Beale Street Could Talk NYFF56 Premiere at The Apollo Theater

Film at Lincoln Center

30:56

Go inside the U.S. premiere of Barry Jenkins's adaptation of James Baldwin's If Beale Street Could Talk at the 56th New York Film Festival, which took place at the world famous Apollo Theater, the first time that the festival presented a screening at the historic theater. The film was largely shot in New York City, including many Harlem locations. In celebration of the vibrant community and their support of the film, Annapurna, the Film Society of Lincoln Center, and the Apollo Theater worked together to present a host of outreach programs. Local students as well as Harlem residents were among the first audiences invited to see the James Baldwin adaptation, in the neighborhood that is home to its characters.
