Since any New York City cinephile has a nearly suffocating wealth of theatrical options, we figured it’d be best to compile some of the more worthwhile repertory showings into one handy list. Displayed below are a few of the city’s most reliable theaters and links to screenings of their weekend offerings — films you’re not likely to see in a theater again anytime soon, and many of which are, also, on 35mm. If you have a chance to attend any of these, we’re of the mind that it’s time extremely well-spent.
BAMCinématek
Producer and screenwriter James B. Harris is celebrated in a limited-run series that includes Kubrick’s Paths of Glory, Lolita, and The Killing, as well as The Bedford Incident and the James Woods-led, Ellroy-scripted Cop. All are on 35mm.
Nitehawk Cinema
“Nitehawk Naughties” brings Anita: The Sweet Nymphet on Friday and Saturday at midnight. Running concurrent to that is a 35mm print of Enter the Void, which screens under the “April Midnite: Tune In, Turn On” banner.
The Natural plays around noon (and with brunch) on Saturday and Sunday for “Play Ball 3: Bases Loaded.”
Anthology Film Archives
The great Dick Miller is celebrated in a new series, which brings the likes of Joe Dante and Roger Corman to Anthology’s screens.
