Anyone seen/seeing the Albert Ayler doc at AFA?

C0L1N B..., Wednesday, 14 November 2007 19:31 (eighteen years ago)

I was sposta review it. They sent me a European DVD.

Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 14 November 2007 20:18 (eighteen years ago)

If anyone has MIX tips, speak:

Maybe I'd go to the 11pm Friday shorts, if I'm up.

Dr Morbius, Thursday, 15 November 2007 14:30 (eighteen years ago)

after today, Divorce—Italian Style is only playing 9:20 pm at FF.

Dr Morbius, Thursday, 15 November 2007 17:14 (eighteen years ago)

Get your Norman Lloyd tickets yet?

James Redd and the Blecchs, Thursday, 15 November 2007 22:17 (eighteen years ago)

no, but I see they're available.

Dr Morbius, Thursday, 15 November 2007 22:34 (eighteen years ago)

Yes, that's what I was trying to tell you.

James Redd and the Blecchs, Thursday, 15 November 2007 23:03 (eighteen years ago)

o i c

Divorce was cute. Why anyone thinks it's GREAT, I'm not sure.

Dr Morbius, Friday, 16 November 2007 14:11 (eighteen years ago)

Saw it years ago, didn't make much of an impression. Wasn't he Oscar nominated?

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Friday, 16 November 2007 14:20 (eighteen years ago)

yes, it got several; Germi too?

I hv my N Lloyd ticket.

Dr Morbius, Friday, 23 November 2007 19:39 (eighteen years ago)

Hoberman on Sembene (and Ophuls, briefly):

Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 27 November 2007 21:58 (eighteen years ago)

If I go to see Salo, should I bring someone to hold my hand?

Dr Morbius, Thursday, 29 November 2007 16:46 (eighteen years ago)

I would recommend any NY snob to see Letter from an Unknown Woman on its last night @BAM tonight; it fulfilled all of my expecs.

Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 4 December 2007 15:45 (eighteen years ago)

I would recommend any NY snob EVERYONE ON THE PLANET to see Letter from an Unknown Woman

fixed

impudent harlot, Tuesday, 4 December 2007 15:51 (eighteen years ago)

Salò makes an even more problematic date movie than Jeanne Dielman!

Casuistry, Tuesday, 4 December 2007 15:54 (eighteen years ago)

Ophuls and Sembene have taken over my December.

Dr Morbius, Monday, 10 December 2007 16:48 (eighteen years ago)

there were maybe 15 people at last night's 7:45 show of Guelwaar.

I am trying to figure out how to squeeze in Skolimowski's Deep End...

Dr Morbius, Monday, 10 December 2007 16:50 (eighteen years ago)

AFA is doing a full Weerasethakul retro in mid-Jan.

C0L1N B..., Monday, 10 December 2007 17:19 (eighteen years ago)

BAM is doing a Manoel de Oliveira centennial retro in Feb or March! I wonder if he'll fly in!?

Dr Morbius, Monday, 10 December 2007 17:23 (eighteen years ago)

Haha, at last year's NYFF-screening of Belle toujours, Kent Jones or whoever basically said "uh, you guys didn't expect him to be here did you?"

C0L1N B..., Monday, 10 December 2007 17:25 (eighteen years ago)

He came to the NYFF about 6 years ago. Still, he was a sprig of 93 then.

Dr Morbius, Monday, 10 December 2007 17:26 (eighteen years ago)

AFA seems to have retros planned for olivier assayas, charles burnett and albert brooks (!) as well

impudent harlot, Monday, 10 December 2007 17:38 (eighteen years ago)

haha AND a new print of myra breckinridge!!

impudent harlot, Monday, 10 December 2007 17:39 (eighteen years ago)

snobs, I think I can only make 1 tonight -- which? None are on DVD.

1) Camp de Thiaroye (Sembene) - saw it maybe 12 years ago, it's fine
2) Caught (Ophuls) - never seen
3) Deep End (Skolimowski) - never seen (last night of week run)

Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 12 December 2007 16:44 (eighteen years ago)

What time is Deep End?

James Redd and the Blecchs, Wednesday, 12 December 2007 16:46 (eighteen years ago)

7 & 9.

Ophuls is 7 only.

and I could only make 7:30 of Sembene (it's long).

I thought about running 10 mins to the F from BAM to get to Anthology, but the odds are vs that.

Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 12 December 2007 16:48 (eighteen years ago)

as close as these places all are to each other they are also NOT CLOSE ENOUGH

(probably not seeing any of those tonight, trivia)

impudent harlot, Wednesday, 12 December 2007 16:52 (eighteen years ago)

I guess I will go to Ophuls and see if splices shorten the running time enough to dash to Deep End.

Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 12 December 2007 21:30 (eighteen years ago)

Any Joan Blondell fans in the house?

http://www.moma.org/exhibitions/film_exhibitions.php?id=6736

http://www.filmlinc.com/wrt/onsale/allthatfosse/program.html

Dr Morbius, Thursday, 20 December 2007 15:54 (eighteen years ago)

also I'm going to try to take children to City Lights.

Dr Morbius, Friday, 28 December 2007 16:38 (eighteen years ago)

Otto!

Expect I'll see Daisy Kenyon at last tomw night, tho I've seen Laura plenty.

Dr Morbius, Wednesday, 2 January 2008 18:40 (eighteen years ago)

if i'd woken up at a reasonable hour today, i would probably be doing that

impudent harlot, Wednesday, 2 January 2008 18:42 (eighteen years ago)

Patricia Neal and Jill Haworth will be introducing next Tuesday's 8pm show of In Harm's Way at FF.

Dr Morbius, Friday, 4 January 2008 17:58 (eighteen years ago)

If you feel like seeing some "Ford at Fox" on a big screen, which I'd recommend for some of the epics:

http://www.movingimage.us/site/screenings/mainpage/john_ford.html

Seen any Paskaljevic? I liked Midwinter Night's Dream and cabaret Balkan, haven't seen any older.

Dr Morbius, Thursday, 10 January 2008 15:23 (eighteen years ago)

Any Japanese film snobs interested in some 60s action at the Japan Society on Friday?

http://www.japansociety.org/content.cfm/event_detail?eid=4517028a

Virginia Plain, Thursday, 17 January 2008 03:27 (eighteen years ago)

Japan Society shows some great stuff with the one caveat that sometimes the prints are not so good (and sometimes 16mm although this says 35mm)

James Redd and the Blecchs, Thursday, 17 January 2008 03:41 (eighteen years ago)

that's true.

I likely won't stick around for that as we get outta work at 3 Friday.

Dr Morbius, Thursday, 17 January 2008 14:10 (eighteen years ago)

thought you guys might dig these

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 18 January 2008 15:00 (eighteen years ago)

It's "Joe" weekend.

http://www.anthologyfilmarchives.org/schedule

Might try for shorts, tonight & tomw.

Dr Morbius, Friday, 18 January 2008 16:22 (eighteen years ago)

"Joe"? Joe Dallesandro or Peter Boyle?

James Redd and the Blecchs, Friday, 18 January 2008 16:25 (eighteen years ago)

I'm going to try for Syndromes and a Century.

C0L1N B..., Friday, 18 January 2008 16:36 (eighteen years ago)

yeah i still haven't seen syndromes, might try to make that sunday.

tipsy mothra, Friday, 18 January 2008 16:38 (eighteen years ago)

Von Sternberg?

James Redd and the Blecchs, Friday, 18 January 2008 16:39 (eighteen years ago)

OK, I get it.

James Redd and the Blecchs, Friday, 18 January 2008 16:40 (eighteen years ago)

I might need a second look, it really left me intrigued but dubious. Don't know if there'll be time tho.

ken = relentless vaudevillian

New cashier at the FF is a big Kevin Brownlow fan.

Nicholas Raybeat (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 6 November 2025 17:33 (seven months ago)

And now they have a new cookie named after on ILX0r: kitchen sinker.

Nicholas Raybeat (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 6 November 2025 17:33 (seven months ago)

Anyway, went back to the final day of Brownlow for an Abel Gance doc and Winstanley.

Nicholas Raybeat (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 7 November 2025 01:26 (seven months ago)

four weeks pass...

Wonder if I should go to MoMI tonight to see either Tarantula in the small theater or Carrie in the big theater.

Nicholas Raybeat (James Redd and the Blecchs), Friday, 5 December 2025 12:08 (six months ago)

Saw the Squid and the Whale last night at BAM with Baumbach, Daniels and Eisenberg there for a post-film Q&A. Holds up well, great with an audience. Wasn't aware that Daniels' character was based on Baumbach's father, to the extent that Daniels wore his clothing during the shoot. Daniels shared a story of meeting him that aligned very much with the the depiction in the film. Eisenberg went from looking angry to be in the room to dourly funny and back a few times.

bulb after bulb, Friday, 5 December 2025 14:44 (six months ago)

one month passes...

Thinking about going to see The Joyless Street at MoMA this coming week.

Eric Blore Is President (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 18 January 2026 01:48 (four months ago)

Anyone know this noir playing at BAM tonight, _The Locket_, with Laraine Day and Robert Mitchum?

Wonder if he ever ended up seeing this? Watching it now.

Eric Blore Is President (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 18 January 2026 14:27 (four months ago)

Anyway have a screening today at MoMI but got confused and thought it was at one instead of four so am here three hours early. First time for everything

Eric Blore Is President (James Redd and the Blecchs), Sunday, 18 January 2026 17:40 (four months ago)

Anyway all's well that ends well, screening and Q&A were good and I ran into a friend there.

Eric Blore Is President (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 19 January 2026 07:12 (four months ago)

That was A Little Prayer

Eric Blore Is President (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 19 January 2026 17:05 (four months ago)

Thinking about going to see _The Joyless Street_ at MoMA this coming week.

Not together enough to go today but maybe Thursday.

Eric Blore Is President (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 19 January 2026 17:06 (four months ago)

Bruce Conner's Three Screen Ray is playing at the Paula Cooper Gallery on W 21st. I haven't seen it but I hope someone here does
