If you’re from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Don’t! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, it’s worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

I have another indie theater that I prefer because it’s cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. It’s not really anything special visually but it’s a beautiful institution and it’s so fun to be there ❤️
But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loew’s Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! It’s pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but it’s a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!

Again, I'm using this category as an umbrella so I can list my favorite movies that I think by watching will make everyone's life better or at least distract you from whatever bullshit is going on in your own life for a moment, and put a smile on your face. Maybe you'll even relate to what the characters in the films are going through and you'll feel a little bit less alone and it will change your life forever. These are my favorite movies that I watch over and over again: An Unmarried Woman, Swingers, Annie Hall, Broken English, Girlfriends. Last Days of Disco, and Hannah and Her Sisters. And one of my favorite theaters to watch movies in in New York City is Metrograph. A sanctuary. A safe haven. The programming is extraordinary. And they have a wonderful restaurant upstairs called The Commissary. Run don't walk.

If I've ever talked with you about music, we've probably talked about LUCY. The ultra-prolific Western Mass cult hero has been the most important artist in my life for the past seven years.
In 2024, he released three albums. Beyond that, he's cooking on at least four active side projects. In my book, everything he releases is required-listening.
So it would be impossible to choose a true favorite. The depth of LUCY's catalogue is one of the special things about his work. But I narrowed it down by focusing on his last release: Cooper B. Handy's Album Vol. 9.
This one is dense -- a lotta gems. Here's a playlist of all the vol. 9 songs I really hope you'll listen to. Among those, "Folk Song" stands out. I'm obsessed with the switch-up from the verse to the chorus. Every day, I walk around with a million LUCY lines floating in my head. This song has a bunch of them:
Who you gonna call when the levee runs dry?
Said fuck the cops -- cuz they got the wrong girl and they got the wrong guy
You got a thing for the world I can see it in your eyes
Said fuck the cops -- cuz they got the wrong girl and they got the wrong guy
They put him in the ground and I see him in the sky
I got a thing for the world you can see it in my eyes.
Money -- people kill for that money ...
Who you gonna call when you wanna know why?
They put you on hold, and you watch another day go by
