"In his new weekly column, Here & Now & Then, Michael Koresky explores one of cinema’s uncanniest properties: the false sense of déjà vu it imparts in the viewer, which makes us feel like we’ve seen and experienced places and times in which we never existed. Each week, he will choose a year from throughout film history, and examine three titles from that year, made as contemporary works, revealing that all films—even horror, fantasy, comedies, and melodramas—are in one way or another documentaries of their time."
