Timeline
Jones co-wrote Arnaud Desplechin's film Jimmy P: Psychotherapy of a Plains Indian, and though it did screen at the New York Festival, Jones recused himself from the selection process to avoid a conflict of interest. He directed Hitchcock/Truffaut (2015) about François Truffaut's celebrated book on Alfred Hitchcock before making his narrative feature debut with Diane (2018). The following year, the Film Society announced that Jones had decided to step down as the director of the New York Film Festival and as the chairman of the festival's selection committee. Jones would later cite his own ambitions to make more films as the basis for his decision.
He worked at New Video, the first video store in Manhattan, before writing professionally as a film critic. He would later become a correspondent for Cahiers du Cinéma and his criticism would later be published in Bookforum, Artforum, and Cinema Scope. His writing would also appear in Film Comment beginning in 1996, and he later became the publication's editor-at-large. A collection of his work was later published as Physical Evidence: Selected Film Criticism in 2007.
In the early 1990s, Jones worked as a video archivist for Martin Scorsese at his offices in the Brill Building. He eventually worked on many of Scorsese's documentaries on film history, and he later co-directed several including A Letter to Elia (2010), and directed his own such as Val Lewton: The Man in the Shadows (2007). He also programmed with Bruce Goldstein a repertory series at Film Forum on 1970s American films before joining the Film Society of Lincoln Center as an associate director programming in 1998. He then joined the selection committee for the New York Film Festival in 2002, and he later succeeded Richard Peña as the director of the New York Film Festival and as the chairman of the festival's selection committee, overseeing his first programming slate in 2013. Jones would also be awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship for his scholarly work in 2012.
Kent Jones grew up in Berkshire County, Massachusetts before attending McGill University in the late 1970s. He then transferred to New York University where he studied filmmaking. Jones later recalled, "I had a very romantic notion of studying film with Nick Ray, who was a teacher at NYU, but Nick died before I had the chance to take his class and I eventually dropped out of school."
