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.
Anthology Film Archives
Spend Valentine’s Day the right way with 35mm showings of We Won’t Grow Old Together, Modern Romance, Possession, and Minnie and Moskowitz.
Between showings of those, enjoy a double-bill of Andy Warhol‘s Blow Job and Eating Too Fast on Saturday, as well as a Kenneth Anger program on Sunday.
Film Forum
The John Boorman and Charles Laughton retrospectives bring several classics, including Point Blank, Night of the Hunter, Deliverance, The Big Clock, and more.
An American in Paris plays on Sunday.
BAMCinématek
Big Trouble in Little China and Assault on Precinct 13 play on Friday and Sunday, respectively, continuing the ongoing John Carpenter retrospective.
Museum of Modern Art
“Carte Blanche: Women’s Film Preservation Fund—Women Writing the Language of Cinema” continues.
Nitehawk Cinema
Sid and Nancy plays at midnight on Friday and Saturday.
