Since any New York 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.
Metrograph
IB Technicolor prints of Hatari!, Singin’ in the Rain, and Vertigo screen this Saturday.
As part of the “Metrograph A-Z” series, Cat People and The Cassandra Cat play this Friday. Barry Lyndon also plays Friday, as well as Sunday — along with Scorsese‘s The Age of Innocence.
A new print of Craig’s Wife screens this Sunday.
