2022 Tribeca Festival: Highlights to watch in theaters or at home
CBSN
New York City's Tribeca Festival opened Wednesday night, launching its 21st edition with a starry documentary about Jennifer Lopez. Over the next week and a half, narrative films, non-fiction, shorts and filmmaker Q&As will unspool both in theaters and to watch at home.
The festival, which runs through June 19, includes more than 100 feature films (fiction and documentary), nearly two-thirds of which are directed by women, as well as programs of short films and TV. The vast majority of films are world premieres, or have had limited festival exposure — such as Kathryn Ferguson's exceptional Sinead O'Connor documentary, "Nothing Compares," which debuted at Sundance earlier this year — so the opportunity is ripe for discovery.
Among the premieres: films starring Jon Hamm ("Corner Office"), Letitia Wright ("Aisha"), Bryan Cranston and Annette Bening ("Jerry & Marge Go Large"), Ray Romano and Laurie Metcalf ("Somewhere in Queens"), Katie Holmes ("Alone Together"), Peter Dinklage and Shirley MacLaine ("American Dreamer"), and Colson Baker, a.k.a. Machine Gun Kelly ("Taurus").
