Showing no signs of slowing down after turning 80 earlier this year, filmmaker Clint Eastwood held the attention of a room full of journalists at the New York Film Festival press conference for Hereafter over the weekend, hours before the drama closed the 48th annual fest. Screenwriter Peter Morgan and actors Matt Damon, Bryce Dallas Howard and Cecile de France were also in attendance.
The movie is made up of three concurrent storylines, one featuring Damon’s George Lonegan, a psychic who can communicate with dead loved ones who is trying to have a normal life, de France as a French journalist who survived a near-death experience and is looking for answers on what she saw before returning to life, and two London twins who are separated by death, causing the living twin to find a way to reconnect with his dead brother.
