Someone please go see Benjamin Naishtat's El Movimento tonight at Film Society of Lincoln Center, so that you can tell me if it's good. His History of Violence was very promising.

The Goldbug Variations is pretty fun as well.

Yup. I'm a huge fan of Porumbiu and I really liked it. Funny, droll, beautiful, one if the best endings of the year. I also love thinking about it, it's subtly smart.

Damn I'll be in France of all places when the Eustache retrospective is going on. I shouldn't complain but I am a big fan so ... dommage.

a last visit to the Ziegfeld
The first movie to play in this theater, back in 1969, was Marooned, a space-age thriller....
We hear Thursday may be the last day.
http://vanishingnewyork.blogspot.com/2016/01/the-ziegfeld.html
My dad most definitely took me to see Marooned in Manhattan in '69, so I have to think it was here.

And while I'm here - let me point out the silliness of including the O in your "MOMI" (it was AMMI, but I guess is Un-American now?) but not "FSLC" (I go with the filmlinc webmanteau, which is at least pronounceable). Even MoMA drops the case, mami.
