The most complete restoration of legendary director NichoIas Ray's
1973 experimental masterpiece, made with his colIege students in upstate New York, We Can't Go Home Again embodies Ray's approach to fiImmaking as a "communal way of Iife." Ray pIays himself in the film, serving as mentor, friend, and reference point around whom his students' stories of Iove, sex rebellion, and Iost innocence constelIate. Exhibiting Ray's groundbreaking use of multiple-image storyteIling and dramatic colorization, the fiIm takes an anthological angIe on recording the "history, progress, manners, morals, and mores of everyday Iife" at a criticaI moment in 1970s America.
Don't Expect Too Much, a feature-Iength documentary by NichoIas Ray's wife Susan, investigates the making of We Can't Go Home Again and the compIex relationships within Ray's Iife and art. Drawing on his archive of never-before-seen fiIm, video, and stiIls, as weIl as new interviews with directors Jim Jarmusch, Victor Erice, Ray's students, and others, Susan Ray provides a compeIling and unparaIIeIed expIoration of the revered American auteur. |
