With the 62nd New York Film Festival just a few weeks away, one of my favorite moments between the movies is connecting with the dedicated, passionate, cinema-loving audience that attends every year. There is no better place to do that than our returning Cinephile Game Nights, and this year, they will be bigger and better than ever.
Ahead of four new editions to be announced soon during the festival, join yours truly and The B-Side co-host Conor O’Donnell for a pair of special editions of Cinephile Game Night at New York’s premier cannabis destination, The Travel Agency: A Cannabis Store. Supported by brand partners Ayrloom, Hudson Cannabis, Rove, and Silly Nice, I’ll also be giving out tickets to some of the biggest NYFF62 screenings, including The Brutalist, Anora, Nickel Boys, along with many other prizes.
