Overview

Few filmmakers have been as prolific, prodigious and endlessly inventive as Richard Linklater. From the experimentation of Slacker, Waking Life, A Scanner Darkly and Boyhood, and the joyful period dramas Dazed and Confused and Everybody Wants Some!! to the comedies School of Rock and Hit Man and the beloved Before trilogy, Linklater has never failed to engage, move and entertain.

He discussed his remarkable and wide-ranging body of work, including his two new films Blue Moon and Nouvelle Vague at the 2025 BFI London Film Festival, in conversation with Ian Hayden Smith.
