Paul Thomas Anderson's Cameron Winter Concert Film to Tour U.S. Theatres on 35mm This November
Paul Thomas Anderson's concert film Cameron Winter at Carnegie Hall will screen in U.S. theatres from November 20, with prints on 35mm tape touring the country through mid-January. Janus Films and Criterion are handling the release, according to Pitchfork.
The film captures Winter's sold-out solo debut at Carnegie Hall, recorded on December 11, 2025. Anderson filmed the performance onstage alongside Benny Safdie, who co-produced the film; Sara Murphy, Erica Frauman, and Maggie Ambrose serve as producers. For Anderson — the director of There Will Be Blood and Phantom Thread — it is the latest in a run of music-focused film projects, and the choice to print on 35mm rather than go straight to digital means each screening carries the grain and warmth of physical film stock.
The rollout begins November 20 at Village East by Angelika and BAM Rose Cinemas in New York, with the Aero Theater in Los Angeles the same night and the Los Feliz 3 Theatre following on November 23. From there, the prints travel to Washington, DC (AFI Silver Theater, November 27), San Francisco (Castro Theater, December 2), Chicago (Music Box Theater, December 4), Atlanta (Plaza Theater, December 5), Dallas (Texas Theater, December 5), and Denton, Texas (Fine Arts Theatre, December 8).
Boston's Coolidge Corner Theatre hosts a December 8 screening, with Santa Ana's Frida Cinema on December 10, Nashville's Belcourt Theatre on December 11, Milwaukee's Oriental Theatre on December 14, Houston's Museum of Fine Arts on December 17, and Louisville's Speed Art Museum on December 19. The tour continues into the new year: Austin Film Society on December 30, Omaha's Dundee Theatre on January 1, Tucson's Loft Cinema on January 6, Ann Arbor's State Theatre on January 15, and Portland's Hollywood Theatre on January 18.
A companion live album, Live at Carnegie Hall, arrives October 9 via Partisan Records and Play It Again Sam, as confirmed by JamBands. The album, produced by Ariel Rechtshaid — a Grammy-winning producer whose credits include Vampire Weekend and Haim — marks Winter's first live release. So listeners get two versions of the same December night: the audio in early October, the film on screen six weeks later.
Winter is the frontman of the New York band Geese and has been touring as a solo artist alongside the band through the fall. His Carnegie Hall show last December sold out, drawing Anderson and Safdie to document the performance. The fact that two filmmakers of that calibre pointed cameras at a single concert gives the project a weight beyond a standard tour film — though what they shot, and how it plays, will be for audiences to see when the lights go down in November.
