Overview

• The downtown Manhattan Roxy Cinema is hosting Harris Dickinson Selects, a series he curated to place audiences inside the visual and emotional influences of his first feature.
• Urchin opens from distributor 1-2 Special in New York and Los Angeles on October 10, followed by a nationwide expansion on October 17.
• The lineup features Agnès Varda’s Vagabond, Gary Oldman’s Nil by Mouth, Andrei Tarkovsky’s Andrei Rublev, and Lino Brocka’s Manila in the Claws of Light.
• Dickinson cites Andrei Rublev as a major influence on his sense of rhythm and atmosphere, underscoring the series’ focus on formal inspiration.
• He will personally introduce the Manila in the Claws of Light screening on October 9, as IndieWire’s coverage also highlights a review noting the film’s deliberate subversion of a conventional hero’s journey.
