anyone care to vouch for The Makioka Sisters as a must-see?

Ha, I was going to try to see it this weekend but didn't make it. Never seen it either.

I've seen it on TV--it's sort of exactly what you would expect, but maybe it works better on the big screen. I preferred the book.

Fans of Dead of Night should head over to Film Forum to see Went The Day Well?

yeah, I have to, since predictably it's the last night and I've been "busy"

So a bunch of events, some free, to open the new Linc Ctr screens this weekend. Just got a FSLC email about the Coen Bros discussing their opening scenes (mod Noah Baumbach) Friday eve.

Cool. Did you see that Romanian thing at the FF?
― Onimosapien (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 7 June 2011 21:52 (twelve years ago) link
long list of things I'm not going to...tonight at Spectacle two movies with soundtracks by Can that look pretty awesome.
― dan selzer, Tuesday, 7 June 2011 22:04 (twelve years ago) link
yes, I recommend the Romanian adultery pic highly

Would like to go to FF in next two days to see Rejoice and Shout or La Dolce Vita restoration but don't think I can make it.
― James & Bobby Quantify (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 14:10 (twelve years ago) link
Rejoice and Shout ends w/ Obama's election, so that rules it out for me (Armond otm)
― already president FYI (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 15 June 2011 14:11 (twelve years ago) link
I agree the Obama clip seemed out of place, most of the rest of it was good and worth seeing. I'm rather sorry it didn't do better.
― MrDasher, Thursday, 16 June 2011 14:19 (twelve years ago) link
Tried to go last night to the last show but didn't make it.
Le Rayon Vert coming July 1.
― James & Bobby Quantify (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 17 June 2011 17:19 (twelve years ago) link
I just saw it at BAM, now it's coming to Film Forum.
Usually it's BAM that seems to show things after other places (maybe just my skewed perception).
― MrDasher, Friday, 17 June 2011 18:11 (twelve years ago) link
no, that's the way
― already president FYI (Dr Morbius), Saturday, 18 June 2011 01:24 (twelve years ago) link
Film Forum is also showing Dial M for Murder in 3-D scheduled through 6/23.

Skolimowski's "The Shout" tonight in Queens. Just noticed that Jim Broadbent is in this.

Saw it about a year ago, strange piece of work.
Witchfinder General is playing at 92Y tomw night (8pm, I think).

intriguing series at the anthology:http://anthologyfilmarchives.org/film_screenings/series/37703
richard brody wrote about the eustache film after it played a few months back, sounds interesting. i think this kind of thing sometimes sounds more compelling than it actually might end up being, so at least having the chance to see it in numbers locked in a dark room gives you reason to go.

I have about a week left in NYC before moving away. Any haps this week? Film, non-film, music, it's-hot-wanna-enjoy-life-before-it-ends-in-a-week kinda stuff, etc?
In the Heat of the Night free in Bryant Park tonight...

i'd be at the william lustig series at anthology this week, if i were you (hard-to-find '60s/'70s gritty potboilers, mostly)

it's unfortunately ending right before i fly into nyc :/

If you're around tonight, Spectacle is showing two GREAT films from Jean-Pierre Gorin's USA trilogy.
― C0L1N B..., Monday, 18 July 2011 22:08 (twelve years ago) link
wau, is it the first two? i still have routine pleasures to watch, but poto & cabengo's a must
― Aa Bb Obscure Dull Blue (#000066) (schlump), Monday, 18 July 2011 22:12 (twelve years ago) link
You should also check Screen Slate or Alt Screen for film listings.
― C0L1N B..., Monday, 18 July 2011 22:13 (twelve years ago) link
x-post
It's Poto and Cabengo and My Crasy Life, which is easily the weakest of the three, but definitely worth hunting down.

anything good/essential coming up this week? might try to squeeze a movie in at some point while i'm in town
― rameau: first blood (donna rouge), Monday, 25 July 2011 16:47 (twelve years ago) link

oh, the two Raoul Walsh pre-Code romcoms at Film Forum Tuesday night are FANTASTIC! Me and My Gal / Sailor's Luck.
Then Thursday there's Airport 1975 at the Chelsea, hosted by Hedda Lettuce.

and I did.
Triple bill tonight is impossible, but maybe two, incl Union Depot

Totally wanted to go to FF on Sunday but didn't.
― Scharlach Sometimes (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 9 August 2011 18:59 (twelve years ago) link
Union Depot is kind of funny, espesh. in terms of its gender politics. There's an implied hooker, IIRC

Hey guys, you should go and see LITTLEROCK this week, it was made by a friend of mine.

p sure it was included in talking head, at the anthology - did anyone see/has anyone seen scorsese's italianamerican? i was always curious about it.
― bruce actual springsteen (schlump), Sunday, 14 August 2011 22:19 (twelve years ago) link
yes, his parents are marvelously entertaining in it.
― satan club sandwich (Dr Morbius), Monday, 15 August 2011 00:54 (twelve years ago) link
i oughtta see.i think i am maybs in NY around the time of the film festival at the start of october; hope to coincide with something exciting. i always fuck up at festivals by seeing things that are just out, two months later, rather than never to be screened again.
― bruce actual springsteen (schlump), Monday, 15 August 2011 10:51 (twelve years ago) link
The NYFF shows less 'never to be screened again' stuff every year, cept for the sidebars. I mean, they're showing the restored 1959 Ben-Hur this year!
― satan club sandwich (Dr Morbius), Monday, 15 August 2011 14:01 (twelve years ago) link
i mean: i have never seen ben-hur, but i see your point. i sorta remember that period as being triply loaded in ny anyway, w/CMJ & the new yorker fest, so maybe it'll slide (or maybe i'll catch the ides of march, which i guess is playing.
