In Noah Baumbach’s own words: “In 1985 my father and I drove from Brooklyn to see Kurosawa’s Ran open the 23rd NYFF, the same year that he brought home the hardback of Don Delillo’s WHITE NOISE. Opening the 60th NYFF with WHITE NOISE is truly special for me. This festival was part of my film education and has been a home for me and many of my movies over the years. I couldn’t be more excited and honored to return.”
