All Purpose NYC ILX Film Snob Thread

I'm going to the metrograph tonight for WR: mysteries of the organism, which I've never seen & always wanted to

I was tempted by the losey as it's a favourite of mine but went to gig instead

count the old hippies!

Its great, go! That remindds me I didn't put Makavejev in my top 50 and he is definitely that.

metrograph is a block or two away from mission chinese and fat radish; which overpriced NYC hipster foodery should i prioritize

Old hippie count: 0, i think I was the oldest person there

Times has a feature story on the MoMA Cinerama Sunday, so get tix now if you wanna

Also on Sunday, Jerry Schatzberg will be at the Metrograph to present a 35 mm print of his 1970 film Puzzle of a Downfall Child with Faye Dunaway.

Hmmm I may check it out - hoping to finally get to the new museum today so will be in the neighbourhood. Might be all cinema'd out for one week tho.

I stuck it out till the end of the fassbinder - surprisingly enough given that I felt my eyelids beginning to droop during the introduction. I liked it (and was surprised by how good-natured it all was) but it's so not meant to be watched in this way - whoever it is that's showing it over a few weekends has the right idea I think.

Glad you survived, wins, unlike these people

Hi snobs

Is there a single listing anywhere that will tell me what's playing at all the arthouse/repertory theatres?

Or even just a list of such theatres so I can check their listings myself...

and sonuvabitch, the Sea of Love Q&A is sold out already.

Did any of y'all go to the FF screening of Skidoo on Thursday? The Q&A with Austin Pendleton afterwards was one of the more entertaining such things I've ever seen. Dude's first film and he was opposite Jackie Gleason and, for one day's shooting, Groucho Marx. They were up late wining and dining the night before and were finally told they had to head out at 6 am for the shoot because the sea would be calm. Groucho: "Sure, the sea will be calm, but what about Preminger?"

Also a very very cute moment where they brought Jonathan Lynn (who directed Pendleton in My Cousin Vinny) onstage - Pendleton originated the role of Motel in Fiddler on the Roof on Broadway, and Lynn did the same in London, which is how they met. Neat! Some nice anecdotes from Pendleton about directing Elizabeth Taylor in The Little Foxes. Etc., etc.

My comedian friend went. Did AP say anything about OP verbally bullying Groucho?

No, but he agreed with the host's suggestion that it didn't seem like Groucho was having a good time in the picture. TBF, almost all of Groucho's scenes are just him in one room, sometimes with Alexandra Hay or Donyale Luna, so who knows how long he was even shooting and what his interactions with Preminger were like.
