"Things aren't always what they seem…" The New York Film Festival has unveiled an official trailer for the B&W indie film Passing, marking the feature directorial debut of acclaimed British actress Rebecca Hall. This originally premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival earlier in the year, and is playing at the NYFF next as well as the Hamptons and London Film Festivals this fall. Passing follows the unexpected reunion of two high school friends, whose renewed acquaintance ignites a mutual obsession that threatens both of their carefully constructed realities. Set in 1920s in NYC, the title refers to two Black women who can dress up to "pass" as white women and live a totally different life. Described as "an elegant psychological thriller about obsession, repression, and the lies people tell themselves and others to protect their carefully constructed realities." Starring Tessa Thompson & Ruth Negga, plus André Holland, Alexander Skarsgård, Bill Camp, Ashley Ware Jenkins, and Gbenga Akinnagbe. Based on all the buzz, this is worth a look. ›››
