If you're around tonight, Spectacle is showing two GREAT films from Jean-Pierre Gorin's USA trilogy.

wau, is it the first two? i still have routine pleasures to watch, but poto & cabengo's a must

You should also check Screen Slate or Alt Screen for film listings.
― C0L1N B..., Monday, 18 July 2011 22:13 (thirteen 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.

Triple bill tonight is impossible, but maybe two, incl Union Depot

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.

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 (thirteen 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 (thirteen 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.
― bruce actual springsteen (schlump), Monday, 15 August 2011 14:27 (thirteen years ago) link
Anyone know this noir playing at BAM tonight, The Locket, with Laraine Day and Robert Mitchum?

Mysteries of Lisbon is totally engrossing, though, and it has an interval!
― Pizzataco Five (admrl), Thursday, 1 September 2011 21:19 (thirteen years ago) link
I'm sure it will zip by faster than Tron.
― incredibly middlebrow (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 1 September 2011 21:26 (thirteen years ago) link
I couldn't tell you, I didn't see Tron. I can tell you that Mysteries of Lisbon has some exquisitely beautiful camera moves, too.

i went to nitehawk recently and was really impressed with the quality of the screen and seating, plus the food i had beforehand was pretty good. i think it's my top choice for watching movies now.

It's the MoMA preservation fest, with a 1968 Joe Dante 4-1/2-hr montage whatzit, and the amazing Corman-Shatner racial melodrama The Intruder:

i am in town until the morning it starts/goddammiti would totally get around to catching a brighter summer's day if it was running for a whole week, so annoyed
― Abattoir Educator / Slaughterman (schlump), Wednesday, 9 November 2011 19:41 (twelve years ago) link
OTOH, the week's run means it is now eligible for 2011 lists/polls, so there's another 4 hours outta my life

though catching it is probably a good opportunity to sit in the dark and meditate on your list choices

ya! saw that yesterday when i was at LC for California Split. what's worth seeing besides summer's day and yi yi (which i might skip since i just re-watched it recently)?

"The Bride Wore Black" is not that good.
Might try to catch Mario M at MoMA, easier to get to, but I'm drowning in film catchup as always.
I've seen more Lupino Lane than anyone under 85 should have.
