My cinema studies ass is always thinking about this. if you don’t know how the sausage is made you will be susceptible to the false messaging out there
Not necessarily obvious, but always deeply disturbing when someone lacks it

I can’t recommend it enough tbh. I went in there to return a few I had rented last week and got to spend 10 minutes lost in the shelves, just searching through films. There is such a great feeling of comfort I get by being surrounded by so many physical reproductions of the medium I love so mucchhh. It’s like my version of a museum.

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.

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!!

1958 Newport Jazz Festival. Beautifully documented by fashion photographer Bert Stern. Ft. all of the jazz legends, crowds, outfits … and most importantly, Anita O’Day’s iconic performance of Sweet Georgia Brown and Tea for Two. After reading her autobiography I learned that she was high on heroin at the time. Her performance, specifically, is one of my comfort watches on YouTube.

Multiple reasons to visit NGA, but the free screenings are among the top for me. Thought provoking programming that is usually tied in some way to ongoing exhibitions. I don’t watch trailers so I love to go in there without any expectations. Shout out to the lush red velvet seating - so cozy.
