Film at Lincoln Center Announces Jordan Peele Curation - Broadway World

Film at Lincoln Center announces The Lost Rider: A Chronicle of Hollywood Sacrifice, from January 5-14. Widely hailed as one of this century's great directorial debuts, Jordan Peele's era-defining Get Out injected new life into horror with its witty subversion of racial politics and elitist social mores.
