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!!

Ok I don’t know if I can articulate just how good this recc is but I’ll try. For some reason when the moon is full I can stand and look at it wherever it may be in the sky and just think ahhh everything will be ok. I feel still and calm. I am tiny they are big: a glowing beauteous reassuring orb. I then check on it, consistently peeking out my window through the night to make sure it’s still there. like a parent checking on their bab. I love that it’s there! I love that it affects the oceans. I love that we can see the patterns on its face. If I had to choose between living on the moon or Mars id choose neither because I never not want the chance to see it from afar. I like it as a crescent all the same or when it’s brand new and you see its shadow but god dammit when it’s full it is meaningful and magnificent.

My life is in your hands bus driver. i am letting go of all preconceived timelines and appointments that hassle the conscious mind, the capitalist world. Nothing matters. I am just matter, on the bus. Toot Toot. Beep beep.
