‘Look Into My Eyes’ Trailer: A24-Produced Doc Explores the Strange World of New York Psychics
variety.comMichaela Zee A24 has released the trailer for the documentary “Look Into My Eyes,” from “Miss Americana” director Lana Wilson.
Per the official logline, “‘Look Into My Eyes’ sets its gaze upon a group of New York City psychics as they conduct deeply intimate readings for their clients, revealing a kaleidoscope of connection, healing, and the eternal need to have witnesses to better see ourselves.” Wilson’s previous films include the Taylor Swift documentary “Miss Americana,” “The Departure,” “After Tiller” and the two-parter “Pretty Baby: Brooke Shields,” which earned two Emmy nominations. “This film is not only an exploration of the phenomenon of psychic readings — it’s an invitation to think about the role of art and performance in our lives,” Wilson said of “Look Into My Eyes” in March. “Look Into My Eyes,” which debuted at the Sundance Film Festival in January of this year, is produced by Kyle Martin.
The feature is edited by Hannah Buck, and the director of photography is Stephen Maing. Variety‘s review of “Look Into My Eyes” reads: “The resulting film, an A24 production launched at Sundance, walks a deft line between the ironic and the honestly receptive: Hardline skeptics will be entertained, others peculiarly affected.
A gentle strain of humor, meanwhile, spans the divide. You needn’t have a firm stance on the afterlife and its accessibility to be tickled by a pet medium bragging that she could diagnose a cat’s urinary tract infection through sheer telepathy.” “Look Into My Eyes” opens in limited release on Sept.
