Sorry for the street team post here, but my buddy Jeff who made "Heavy Metal Parking Lot" is showing his new movie doc "Led-Zeppelin-Played-Here" at Anthology Film Archives Friday at 6 pm and Saturday at 3 pm. It's a doc about whether or not Led Zep actually played the Wheaton, MD Community Center in 1969, and it covers other early rawk gigs from touring bands in those days before the rock industry had fully been established.

James Redd and Morbs, I think you will enjoy it

We'll see, but I see few films in October due to baseball, so I will possibly miss the entire Demy retro:

showing in NYC twice

James Redd would probably like this one too. Plus a Johnny Thunders one too I think

J Hoberman introducing Marienbad tomorrow at FF. Venez-vous?

I have to review a film regular ppl will actually read about.

Quel dommage.

i saw Marienbad last just a couple years ago; it's great but i don't need to see it again yet.

Me neither, I just want to see what Hoberman has to say. I enjoyed his commentary on Justine a little while back.

If I didn't have a review screening i'd likely opt for this

Looks good.

anyone care to argue me out of a bi-borough doubleheader tonight of Resnais swan song You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet and '70s nugget Cisco Pike (Krostofferson, Hackman, Karen Black)?

Morbius, are you turning into J4ck 4nstr31ch?

likely not, but i often wait til the 'last' opportunity to see something, and this is it x2.

C Akerman at MoMA tomw night

In person?

yes she's introducing both programs, acc to moma's site

http://www.moma.org/visit/calendar/films/1429

friend told me that when CA intro'ed 'la region centrale' at light industry she was super-cantankerous and wearing a sleep mask

Do you know that my friend who directed Annenberg used to say that Chantal Ackerman was her godmother? Well her and Melina Mercouri and Anouk Aimee. Probably already told you this before, perhaps on this very thread.

whatberg

Sorry, Attenberg.

in case you missed (sorry to be losing his DVD column in Sunday NYT):

you know, I don't think I was ever in this store more than once, all locations included.

Looked in the windows now and then but only maybe went in once myself.

Also, Herzog Nosferatu worth a look-see.

hm, five films for $25 is a good deal! LC theater not too accessible for me tho...

Bogdo introducing Adam's Rib!

What do you think his go-with imitation will be: Kate Hepburn? Ruth Gordon?

he'd do Cary Grant introducing I Am Curious (Yellow)

classic conflict tonight of Sylvia Scarlett at Reade (which I don't think I've seen, and isn't on disc) vs two Stanwyck CinemaScope westerns (love Forty Guns, haven't seen The Violent Men, but both are on home media).

that stanwyck retrospective is tempting

have never seen Stella Dallas, aiming for that

... or Clash by Night either

hoping to be back in town for The Grandmaster at filmlinc (Gilman screen) tomw night at 9
