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.

helps me relax when making big and small decisions— everything in life leads to the next thing, no such thing as a wrong decision, etc.

I will never not recommend this singular podcast episode (recommended to me by a dear friend from high school), which is so funny, silly, and suspenseful: a man remembers all the words and melodies to a song he heard all the time on the radio in arizona when he was a kid, but there's absolutely zero trace of it online or in our collective memory (except for one obscure internet post in a guitar forum, from a user based out of Trinidad & Tobago). the situation is absurd and it's impossible not to laugh along–– i've listened to this on family road trips, drives with friends, etc, probably 6 or 7 times over the past few years without getting sick of it. My first listen was while running the Central park loop and a stranger flagged me down to say we'd passed each other twice and she had to know how I could laugh and smile so much while running
