Fests and events

In a week-long retrospective, Film Forum begins screening features and shorts by Les Blank, 26 films in all, tonight. Brian Sholis offers an overview of this "capricious body of work" at Artforum.

As part of the Arthur Penn retro at Anthology Film Archives, Night Moves screens Sunday, Tuesday and November 23. Kevin Lee: "Arthur Penn''s contribution to the mid-70s Hollywood revival of film noir reflects all of the bitter disillusionment and vertiginous, disempowering truth borne by the fallout of Watergate on American society".
