Film Forum still opem, limiting capacity to 50%.
IFC and BAM still seem to be open.
I think that's it, among rep/art houses.
― brooklyn suicide cult (Dr Morbius), Friday, 13 March 2020 19:23 (four years ago) link
Quad and Metrograph and Angelika are open.
Everyone is doing the 50% crowds thing; I guess that's what the mayor's office is demanding at the moment.

Yes, got an email from local restaurant about implementing this policy as well.

So has the Quad made a permanent decision to cut way back on their repertory screenings? They don't even print a monthly guide anymore. Was this because of the ownership change I read about a while back?
― Josefa, Saturday, 14 March 2020 14:15 (four years ago) link
that happened months ago, and yes, it seems

bummer, their programming used to rule. i basically stopped going for financial reasons - member price at FF or student price at Anthology just clobbers $16 for a not-super-great viewing experience.

ScreenSlate, Light Industry, and others have started a fundraiser to support NYC movie theater employees out of work because of COVID-19. I know one or two affected folks and I'm sure y'all do as well. Consider kicking in, say, what you might have spent on movies and concessions this week, and share in your networks!

Amplifying Anthology Film Archives latest outreach; full links and additional statement of purpose here: https://mailchi.mp/anthologyfilmarchives/update_6_03_2020-622592
Since Anthology is, after all, a cinema and film archive, with a conviction that movies can foster engagement rather than distraction, weโd like to use the cinema as a lens to focus attention more squarely on the struggle, by sharing a list of films (available online from various sources) whose continuing relevance has been underlined in the wake of further instances of police brutality and the gross infringement of civil rights. The list itself (a highly selective and partial one) suggests, even at a glance, how entrenched racism has been and continues to be in our society, and illustrates the courage of those activists who have waged the fight for generations. โข The 6-part documentary series REST IN POWER: THE TRAYVON MARTIN STORY (Jenner Furst & Julia Willoughby Nason, 2018) is an in-depth chronicle of the Trayvon Martin killing and its aftermath. โข CRIME + PUNISHMENT (Stephen Maing, 2018) exposes systemic corruption within the NYPD via the story of the NYPD12, a group of NYC police officers who brought a lawsuit against the city and the department over racist and illegal policing practices. โข WHOSE STREETS? (Sabaah Folayan & Damon Davis, 2017) is one of the most important documentaries to emerge from the killing of Michael Brown and the subsequent protest movement in Ferguson/St. Louis. โข Among the best of the films produced to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Rodney King incident, John Ridleyโs LET IT FALL: LOS ANGELES 1982-1992 (2017) is available on many different platforms. โข Roger Guenveur Smith & Spike Leeโs RODNEY KING (2017) documents Smithโs one-man theatrical production. โข Yance Fordโs personal documentary STRONG ISLAND (2017) charts the aftermath of the killing of his brother William Ford Jr. by a 19-year-old white mechanic, who was acquitted following an investigation that treated Ford more as a suspect than a murder victim. โข FOR AHKEEM (Landon Van Soest & Jeremy S. Levine, 2017), an intimate and moving portrait of the daily life of a St. Louis high school student, was filmed over the course of two years, a period that saw the killing of Michael Brown and the subsequent protest movement. โข Available to watch for free, STAY WOKE: THE BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT (Laurens Grant, 2016) chronicles the evolution of the Black Lives Matter movement. โข Two exposรฉs of Americaโs system of mass incarceration and its devastating and disproportionate impact on African Americans: THE HOUSE I LIVE IN (Eugene Jarecki, 2012) and Ava DuVernayโs 13th (2016). โข THE BLACK POWER MIXTAPE 1967-1975 (Goran Hugo Olsson, 2011) is drawn from 16mm material shot by visiting Swedish journalists who documented some of the leading figures of the Black Power Movement, including Stokely Carmichael, Bobby Seale, Angela Davis, and Eldridge Cleaver. โข Sherry Millner & Ernest Larsenโs 41 SHOTS (2000) is a short reflection on the murder of Amadou Diallo. โข The 14-part history of the Civil Rights Movement that aired on PBS from 1987-90, EYES ON THE PRIZE remains a monumental achievement. โข Shot during the 1968 Democratic National Convention, AMERICAN REVOLUTION 2 (Howard Alk, Mike Gray & Film Group, 1969) charts the unlikely relationship between the Black Power movement in Chicago and the Young Patriots, a primarily white group that was beginning to organize around issues of social mobility, police brutality, and income inequity. โข Santiago Alvarezโs still-vital short film NOW! (1965), depicting the civil rights struggle (and the brutal crackdown it incurred), can be viewed for free here. โข James Blueโs classic film THE MARCH (1964) documents the 1963 civil rights March on Washington. โข Madeline Andersonโs INTEGRATION REPORT 1 (1960) โ the first known documentary film by an African American female director โ examines the struggle for black equality in Alabama, Brooklyn, and Washington, D.C.
