All Purpose NYC ILX Film Snob Thread

catching last night of Losey's Prowler at 7:40

donna rouge or ian going to go with?

dont think so

too bad for them.

ian doesnt see many old movies, that was a special occasion when you ran into us. And dr I always assume has schoolwork.

It's hard out there for a NYC ILX Film Snob.

The second greatest film of all-time, Jack Chambers' The Hart of London (1969-70), is screening near you lucky fuckers very soon. You will walk outside afterward and nothing will ever again look the same.

The Hart of London
Jack Chambers, 16mm, 1970, 79 mins
Introduced by Carolee Schneemann (!!!!)
Wednesday, March 31, 2010 at 7:30pm
Light Industry, 177 Livingston Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201 - _*PLEASE NOTE NEW ADDRESS*_
Tickets - $7, available at door.

a mere two subway stops from my apartment. likely not going though :(

I guess I could make the effort.

Also new print of Close-Up at FF; Criterion in June.

also, Hart of London is on YouTube. :/

Holy goddamn! So it is! Wow. Well, I'm never one to say that you just GOTTA see it on film but...

Donna, at the VERY least, watch the fucker on YouTube.

Looking forward to Close-Up.

When you go to World On A Wire?

next Sunday.

(assuming my friend got the tix today)

Think I'm going Wednesday.

3-1/2 hr film on a weeknight would exhaust me right now.

Going tomorrow. Hopefully my temperature whiplash-induced cold will have abated somewhat.

The Swedish Film series coming soon at Lincoln Center looks interesting.

Anyone seen Renoir's Nana? At BAM tonight, but also there's a DVD I see...

yo morbs i think i might see thundercrack! on saturday at AFA because after this week i need a respite of some sort. probably missing the fassbinder :/

I saw T! once long ago, I wouldn't dissuade you ... but you know me, even jokey semi-porn is a little bit boring. :) I will probably try to see some of the new Kuchars on Sat or Sun.

Friend bought my Fassbinder ticket already.

WoaW was as good as I remembered it from 13 years ago.

any Alain Tanner recomms?

Yeah. Jonah, The Middle of the World, The Salamander, In The White City.

Argh. I've never seen Messidor and I won't get to see it this time.

surprise subbing of Sirk's The Tarnished Angels into Film Forum newspaper series today!

You gonna go?

1:35 (day off)

They gave you your bday off?

TAKEN

Caught world's slowest F train, so going to Sirk at 5:25.

Mrs Norman Maine returns to Reade:

http://filmlinc.com/wrt/onsale/astar.html

She pops up a lot these days in anything written about Johnny Mercer.

FF's website seems to have been hacked.

Still have an eye out on the Swedish Festival at the Reade.

A New Leaf tonight at the 92ndY Tribeca on Hudson St.

http://www.92y.org/shop/92Tri_event_detail.asp?productid=T%2DMM5FA25

Haven't been there yet. When did it open?

At least a year and a half ago?

I was going to see Renoir's Elena and Her Men at BAM, but now I see it's on Criterion. Hmmm....

Thinking about going to Lincoln center to see this Alf Sjöberg thing tonight.

I may go to The Girl with Hyacinths there at 5:15, after this at 2:

http://www.silentclowns.com/nowshowing.html

Did not go after all. Instead stayed home and watched a Resnais called Melo that I had borrowed from the NYPL.

Gonna try to hit DDR/DDR @Anthology at 6:30

Minnelli & Minnelli's A Matter of Time at BAM tonight.

http://www.thelmagazine.com/TheMeasure/archives/2010/05/26/because-im-alive-minnellis-a-matter-of-time

my friend who works there told me they're canceling the screening (the print they rented is badly damaged)

thanks (tho I was likely skipping it)
