Rebecca Hall, Tessa Thompson, Ruth Negga & André Holland on Passing | NYFF59
Director Rebecca Hall and actors Tessa Thompson, Ruth Negga and André Holland discuss Passing, a Main Slate selection at NYFF59, with NYFF Director Eugene Hernandez. A cornerstone work of Harlem Renaissance literature, Nella Larsen’s 1929 novel Passing is adapted to the screen with exquisite craft and skill by writer-director Rebecca Hall, who envelops the viewer in a bygone period that remains tragically present. The film’s extraordinary anchors are Tessa Thompson and Ruth Negga, meticulous as middle-class Irene and Clare, reacquainted childhood friends whose lives have taken divergent paths. Clare has decided to “pass” as white to maintain her social standing, even hiding her identity from her racist white husband, John (Alexander Skarsgård); Irene, on the other hand, is married to a prominent Black doctor, Brian (André Holland), who is initially horrified at Clare’s choices. As the film progresses, and resentments and latent attractions bristle, Hall creates an increasingly claustrophobic world both constructed and destabilized by racism, identity performance, and sexual frustration, leading to a shocking conclusion. A Netflix release. To learn more and get tickets for this year's NYFF, taking place through October 10 indoors and outdoors throughout NYC, visit https://filmlinc.org/nyff.
