“[The film] has to be basically truthful according to human nature. It has to be real. And that comes from your understanding of people and your lifetime experience... You learn from that. But basically, it has to be truthful. And where are you if it’s not?”
–James Ivory
For our Centennial, we asked some of our friends and collaborators to speak about what they love about the Morgan Library & Museum. Watch James Ivory discuss his working process through his archive, which has been at the Morgan since 2017. Through editing notebooks, scripts, and correspondence, Ivory discusses the work behind films from Maurice (1987) and A Room With a View (1985) to Call Me by Your Name (2017).
