A film night with Laurie Anderson
Heart of Dog (2015), 77 minutes
Musician and performance artist Laurie Anderson reflects on the deaths of her husband Lou Reed, her mother and her beloved dog.
Heart of a Dog is a dreamy, drifty and altogether lovely movie.
Manohla Dargis, The New York Times
A dog is at the heart of this film, but there’s room for all manner of extraordinary insights about finding love and giving love, being canine and being human.
Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
