Ava DuVernay’s '14th' Premiers at NYFF, Facing Criticism for Overwhelming Density

Ava DuVernay’s new documentary '14th' premiered at the 2026 New York Film Festival, serving as a companion to her 2016 film '13th'. The 100-minute film explores the Fourteenth Amendment’s legacy through over 50 interviewees, including Sherrilyn Ifill and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. While praised for its archival footage and public service, critics argue the film is overstuffed, with its sheer volume of talking heads diluting its impact. Netflix will release the film in select theaters on November 27, followed by a streaming debut on December 4.

Gilroy Warns Paramount-Warner Merger Will 'Destroy' Hollywood's Mid-Budget Infrastructure

At the New York Film Festival premiere of 'Behemoth!', Tony Gilroy criticized the pending Paramount-Warner Bros. merger, calling it a 'tragic' move that threatens to dismantle the mid-budget theatrical business model. The film, a $36 million drama starring Pedro Pascal, exemplifies the type of adult-oriented project Gilroy fears will become unviable under the new Skydance corporate structure. While the merger is set to close on October 6, consolidating the Big Five studios into four corporate owners, industry figures express concern that this consolidation will limit creative possibilities for filmmakers.
