Cinéma américain contemporain

Reporting on contemporary American cinema may seem an easy task, given its abundance and accessibility. Yet the notion of independent cinema has probably never been more appropriate than in the context of American production. Filmmakers with singular voices need the support of arthouse cinemas to exist. This month, in dialogue with our David Lynch retrospective, we have chosen to present John Carroll Lynch's only film, in which Harry Dean Stanton plays his last great and unforgettable role, and in which David Lynch himself gives the line to him, who has been one of his favourite actors.
