is the best place I’ve been to in NY to browse CDs. Everything is well organized and they still respect the format.
There’s a large $1.50 section that has plenty of all the old bargain bin classics, but will also occasionally please with something unexpected.

Great movie to kick off the new year, on at 9 PM on the 31st at the Studio Galande cinema in the 5th arrondissement, lots of fun and probably very nice people to meet. Come dressed up for extra fun.
As a bonus, I believe it's the only theatre in the world that's been showing the movie weekly with actors since it first came out in 1975, so that's pretty cool !

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!!

They might suck now, but at least they suck together. I respect that.

Two performances in the same space recorded 21 years apart. The first (on an Intel cs430 webcam) in August 2001, just after my mom and I moved from virginia to a small house on cape cod. The second (on a Sony pxw-x70) in August 2022, the night before she moved out and left the cape for good.
I can't stop watching this and it pains me to admit that I love what I see. There's certainly not much discipline or talent on display, but I'm charmed by something else.
