Pretty sick, went with a friend and it was very funny. $14 Movie Theater IPAs were hitting in a fantastic way. Then we went to see the second half of the Knicks game in some dive in the Village. It was a great time, stumbled on the escalator in front of strangers.
10/10
I have another indie theater that I prefer because it’s cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. It’s not really anything special visually but it’s a beautiful institution and it’s so fun to be there ❤️
But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loew’s Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! It’s pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but it’s a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!
if you can’t think of something to gift someone that they may want/use, then you’re better off not giving them anything. no one wants more junk as a gift. flowers are also always nice cuz when they’re not nice anymore you can toss it and not feel guilt.
i’ll never go to the cloisters in nyc again. the isg museum is just a fancy lady's house that lived by herself and invited a bunch of artist friends over all the time. it was also robbed of some Rembrandt's in the 90s and the empty frames are still there to see. now that’s what I call culture, thanks lady!
