Laurie Anderson's new film, Heart of a Dog, has been named one of the Best Movies of 2015 by the New York Times film critic A.O. Scott, landing at No. 4 on his list of favorites.

"A meditation on love, loss and the meaning of life," Scott writes. "Dog people and Lou Reed fans will be especially susceptible (I plead guilty on both counts), but anyone who ever had a heart is likely to succumb to Ms. Anderson’s ethereal wisdom and her fierce formal wit."

Heart of a Dog continues its run at theaters across the United States, opening on still more screens this coming weekend, including the Center for Contemporary Arts in Santa Fe, where Anderson will take part in Q&A sessions at select screenings this weekend.
