Recent restoration of Vertigo returning to the FF. Second blurb from the top is from some unknown Slant writer.

I have no desire to see some damn digitized version. (Do you think they would use that as a substitute quote?)

Do I need to see this tonight?

Migrating Forms at BAM

https://www.fandor.com/keyframe/daily-migrating-forms-2014

Anthology has a blacklistee writer series, tonight a feature w/ the irresistible title The Case Against Brooklyn -- anyone seen Carol Reed's The Key?:

http://anthologyfilmarchives.org/film_screenings/series/43564

That Migrating Forms thing looks interesting. Heinz Emigholz was a guest at the film festival I worked at last spring, and we showed The Airstrip. But because we always knew we would show the new one, we didn't get it on screener, and I couldn't be there at the showing, so I haven't seen it. But he is interesting, I would go and see what he has done.

Apparantly Loznitsa's Maidan opens one of these days in NYC, and I'd def say everyone should go see it. I've been thinking a lot about it since I saw it, really, really great.

Great take by ReverseShot:

John Huston retro @ LincCtr beginning tomw. I don't recall ever knowing of the Garfield-Jennifer Jones Cuban film.

http://www.filmlinc.com/films/series/let-there-be-light-the-films-of-john-huston

http://www.wsj.com/articles/john-huston-a-look-at-his-influence-1418860047

So, it's not until february, but this year's Film Comment Selects will have a series of films from Danish director Nils Malmros. If there is one Danish director I think deserves more recognition, it's probably him. So yeah, I recommend that.

btw if you want to plan your holiday-break NYC rep house fare, this site is mostly updated thru New Years Day.

Steve Buscemi introduces Altman's Kansas City tonight at 7, MoMA

(it's in the small theater, may be on standby only)

tried to watch that a few months back, made it maybe 40 mins

well yeah, but i've seen all the good ones.

Last day for Dumont's Li'l Quinquin at FSLC.

Anthology has a series of TV plays by producer Robert Herridge, including a 1958 All the King's Men directed by Sidney Lumet.

http://anthologyfilmarchives.org/film_screenings/series/43731

i heard mixed things on quinquin; anybody see it?

Too much of his usual shit. Done with him.

lauded Ukraine doc Maidan at MoMA tnite 7:30

It's great.

Goodbye to Language sold out for tonight :(

^this suffered from a lot of first-time director problems and the guy is really still too close to his own experience to get perspective of just WHY he did this and this is maybe 20 minutes too long but there's some worthwhile work going on

Gordon Willis retro at MOMI... the print of his first film, End of the Road, looked great yesterday.

also it's the last day at MoMA for the bananas-looking 1934 puppeteering melodrama I Am Suzanne!

Thanks. Could not figure out at all what that was from photo in the calendar. It first thought it was variant English language version of similarly titled Buñuel film.

morbs, you got me excited about "hard to be a god" so i'm going thursday... did you see it?

nope

2-week run i think

Where's it at?
