Preview: 2023 IFFBoston Fall Focus

Anyone who knows me or reads this blog knows my favorite film festival in Boston, in Massachusetts and possibly the world is Independent Film Festival Boston (read my coverage here). I have a special place for this festival: in 2014 my documentary Life on the V: The Story of V66 had its World Premiere at the festival, and in 2015 I was on the Documentary Jury. IFFBoston’s mini-festival Fall Focus, where they showcase some of the Fall festival darlings will be taking place at the Brattle Theatre (Cambridge, MA) from Thurs. October 19 to Mon. October 23 with a special bonus screenings on Wed. October 18 on Mon. October 30 (more on that in a minute).

2023 Fall Focus logo

Here is my preview. There are loads of movies I’m looking forward to, but these are the films high on my radar:

Wed. 10/18/23:

This is a Pre-Focus Bonus and not an Official Selection of the IFFBoston Fall Focus. This year's Palm D'Or at the Cannes Film Festival Anatomy of a Fall screens at Coolidge Corner Theatre (Brookline, MA).

Thurs. 10/19/23:

The IFFBoston Fall Focus Opening Night Film is the mystery/thriller Eileen that takes place in 1960s Massachusetts. A young employee at a prison (Thomasin McKenzie) befriends a new co-worker (Anne Hathaway) and things take a surprising turn. Also in the cast is Siobhan Fallon Hogan (who I interviewed in 2021 about her film Rushed).

Fri. 10/20/23:

In the sci-fi romance Fingernails, a couple's true love is proven by a controversial technology, but the woman is unsure so she begins working at an institute for love testing. Cast includes Jesse Buckley, Riz Ahmed, Luke Wilson and Annie Murphy.

Sat. 10/21/23:

Big day at the festival with some international films including Ryûsuke Hamaguchi's follow up to Drive My Car with Evil Does Not Exist. But the one I've been hearing a lot about is Dream Scenario, a surreal mind-bender with Nicholas Cage!

Sun. 10/22/23:

As this is the time of year in which countries submit their film to the Academy Awards for Best International Film consideration, there are a number of films at IFFBoston Fall Focus that are the submission for the upcoming Academy Awards including Perfect Days from Wim Wenders (director of one of my all-time faves Wings of Desire) that is Japan's submission and also won Best Actor at Cannes Film Festival for Kôji Yakusho, as well as The Taste of Things, France's submission that stars Juliette Binoche.

Mon. 10/23/23:

The IFFBoston Fall Focus Closing Night Film is the Japanese animated film The Boy and the Heron from acclaimed director Hayao Miyazaki, known for Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke.

Mon. 10/30/23:

A week after the IFFBoston Fall Focus, they have a Post Focus Bonus at Somerville Theatre (Somerville, MA) and they saved something exciting for last. Alexander Payne's new one The Holdovers, which was filmed in Massachusetts last year. Here, Payne reunites with his Sideways star Paul Giamatti for a dramedy about a New England boarding school in 1972. This special screening will include a Q&A with Mr. Payne after the screening.
