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.
Film Forum
Jimmy Stewart and Henry Fonda worked with the best directors of all-time, and now you can see those collaborations in two-for-one double features.
Quad Cinema
Hou Hsiao-hsien’s masterful Daughter of the Nile has been restored, while the restoration of Tarkovsky’s The Sacrifice is playing.
Metrograph
Philippe Garrel and Stephen King have their final weekends, while Maigret Sets a Trap and “Welcome to Metrograph” continue. Frankenstein also plays.
BAM
A retrospective of Mexican horror is underway, with films by del Toro and Jodorowsky included.
Museum of the Moving Image
1940s classics screen this weekend, as does Dawn of the Dead.
Nitehawk Cinema
Prints of Evil Dead 2 and Day of the Dead play alongside Wallace & Gromit.
Museum of Modern Art
“Poverty Row” concludes.
