With only three films to his credit, visionary writer/director Robert Eggers has quickly established himself as a searingly unique filmmaker. His blend of historical accuracy, arthouse aesthetics, and pulpy, genre thrills is unlike any other creative voice in modern cinema. Join us for a lively discussion of his latest film, The Northman, which follows a young Viking prince in 10th century Iceland on an epic, action-filled quest for revenge. We'll examine how the story is written and structured, along with all other aspects of the craft including cinematography, sound, music, and more.
Watch the film The Northman prior to attending. Film screenings sold separately. Film opens 4/21 at the JBFC.
