Village Voice Critic Curates Film Series
To celebrate his 30th anniversary at the Village Voice, the Brooklyn Academy of Music asked J. Hoberman to select films that have sparked some of his most stimulating reviews and articles, as well as a few personal favorites, in a series that begins next week. "30 Years of J. Hoberman" opens Monday with David Lynch's Eraserhead and runs through April 3.

When asked if he'd ever want to step behind the camera again, Hoberman says he's not sure.

You have to really will this stuff into the world."
