“Miss Americana” director Lana Wilson’s ‘Look Into My Eyes’ makes the world of psychics accessable and is acclaimed as one of the must-see movies out of the Sundance Film Festival 2024.

I am honored that a perceptive documentarian, Lana Wilson, has selected me to be featured in her latest, as she turns her reflective lens on an unexpected cluster: 7 psychics across New York City. Wilson puts forth something that will make every New Yorker—or anyone who’s ever sat with unprocessed grief and suffering—feel a little less alone, a little more seen.

Key quote: “We have one pet psychic in the film, and I mean, there’s a lot of humor in the film in general. I hope people will laugh watching it. There’s a lot of wackiness and weirdness, and some of my favorite scenes are with the pet psychic. There’s someone who’s asking her about his lizard, who a zookeeper has absconded with to New Jersey, and he has not heard from the lizard who’s named Bobby Jr. And he wants to know, is my lizard happy and should I go to New Jersey and try to rescue the lizard? To my surprise, the psychic said no to both of those questions. It was not what the client wanted to hear. I found it very interesting. It was kind of an acknowledgement of what happens when you say goodbye to people, to relationships. You have to move on and let this go.” (Lana Wilson)

It’s the pet psychic – an incredible, unfiltered New York original – who answers what many readers may be wondering: when she first had inklings of a sixth sense, she felt, “even if this is fake, I like it and I need it.” But, again, belief is almost beside the point as Wilson skilfully gives emotional space to the consultations, wherever they go, sometimes shockingly revelatory, other times teetering into dead-ends. The psychics themselves are a diverse selection whose lives feel afflicted with, as much as blessed, by whisker-sensitivity to stress and tragedy (familial abuse, discrimination, romantic despair).
