And, finally, our #1 of 2024: RaMell Ross's extraordinary NICKEL BOYS. Writes @eshynes, "A singular artist and thinker who’s committed to articulating and exemplifying the singular in human experience, RaMell Ross treats anything familiar as a lie." #Bestof2024.

Tati's PLAYTIME in 70mm opened @MovingImageNYC's Redstone Theater in 2011. Exciting that the print is back for the first time since! An essential film experience--through Sunday. Sit in one of the tiny cafe chairs afterwards, and you'll feel like Hulot. movingimage.org/event/playti…

MoMI has a special relationship with Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. The film’s modernist look inspired our building’s architect Thomas Leeser and that influence is most evident in our lobby and Redstone Theater where the film will be shown! 1/2

It is with heavy hearts that we mourn the loss of Manfred Kirchheimer. Few filmmakers have meant more to us than Manny, whose astonishing output as a nonfiction artist and crafter of New York visual symphonies cut to the heart of what we love about movies.

Filmed in war-torn Armenia and edited by candlelight, Mikhail Vartanov’s PARAJANOV: THE LAST SPRING (1992) vividly expresses the filmmaker’s friendship with Parajanov while the latter was imprisoned by the Soviets. See it today, Jul 6, 6pm movingimage.org/event/paraja…
