CRITERION SESSIONS: CAIRO STATION w/ William Boyle
Hang onto your slipcases, because Blake Howard and author William "Bill" Boyle discuss the impact of the neorealist melodrama fusion of CAIRO STATION on us watching and on Bill's latest novel, SAINT OF THE NARROWS STREET. Cairo StationYoussef Chahine established his international reputation with this masterpiece, which, though initially a commercial failure in Egypt, would become one of the most influential and celebrated works in all of Arab cinema. The director himself stars as Kenawi, a disabled newspaper hawker whose obsession with a sultry drink seller (Hind Rostom, known as the “Marilyn Monroe of Arabia”) leads to tragedy of operatic proportions on the streets of Cairo.
