The Karlovy Vary Film Festival and Variety have teamed up to honor Francine Maisler, one of the world’s most respected casting directors, whose recent credits include “Dune: Part Two,” “The Bikeriders,” “Challengers,” “Civil War” and “Joker: Folie à Deux.” Among the titles included in the retrospective will be Orson Welles’ “The Trial,” Martin Scorsese’s “After Hours,” Federico Fellini’s “Interview,” Roman Polanski’s “The Tenant,” Steven Soderbergh’s “Kafka,” Ousmane Sembene’s “The Money Order” and Masao Adachi’s “Artist of Fasting.” It is as if he were slyly challenging them to attempt to capture as authentically and intensely as possible the elusive nature of his formulations, of his narratives, of the realities he has crafted and the feelings of apprehension he elicits, yet also of the comic situations he has created.”
