At
MoMA on Monday night for the premiere of his new film "
Standard Operating Procedure," filmmaker
Errol Morris poses alongside
Sony Pictures Classics co-president
Michael Barker. A few days ago, on his
New York Times blog, Morris offered
a lengthy look at the use of re-enactments in his own work, noting, "My re-enactments focus our attention on some specific detail or object that helps us look beyond the surface of images to something hidden, something deeper -- something that better captures what really happened...Some re-enactments serve the truth, others subvert it."
indieWIRE will soon host Errol Morris for
three conversations about his work at Apple Stores in Santa Monica (April 11), New York City (April 23) and San Francisco (April 30).
