On Tuesday evening, a special screening of the iconic film Sophie's Choice was held at New York's Museum of Modern Art, presented by Lanvin, in celebration of its 40th anniversary. The event was hosted by renowned actors Meryl Streep, Kevin Kline, and Peter MacNicol, who all played pivotal roles in this seminal work directed by Alan J. Pakula.
Streep, Kline, and MacNicol took the stage to introduce the movie, reflecting on their experiences during the making of Sophie's Choice. Streep poignantly mentioned that they were among the few remaining individuals who were part of this extraordinary film. She acknowledged the presence of her loyal hair and makeup artist, Jo Roy Helland, and the talented wardrobe specialist, Alba Schipani. However, she couldn't help but acknowledge the absence of the film's visionary contributors: the great writer William Styron, the late Alan Pakula, and the master of light, Nestor Almendros, the cinematographer.
