A GIRL WALKS HOME ALONE AT NIGHT Writer/Director Ana Lily Amirpour in Conversation with Roger Corman
Ana Lily Amirpour portrait by Jason Bedient
A GIRL WALKS HOME ALONE AT NIGHT writer/director Ana Lily Amirpour and legendary producer/director Roger Corman sat down for a discussion earlier this year at the Hammer Museum for a wide-ranging discussion that begins with an advertisement in favor of LSD use, and then moves on into more of the specifics. Corman is genuinely impressed with Amirpour’s vision, and they come across as two mavericks of a kind.
Amirpour tells how she got her start, making her own versions of TV commercials, and obsessing over the “Making Of Thriller” VHS tape.
It’s a terrific introduction to Amirpour, who will present her film A GIRL WALKS HOME ALONE AT NIGHT as an AFS screening on Friday June 26. She will also participate in a Movie Maker Dialogue the following day.
