The two lone continuing series this day are the extended Apu Trilogy at Film Forum and Glorious Technicolor: From George Eastman House and Beyond at MoMA. Hey, whaddaya want? This is what the end of June looks like. Let's see if you're this callously cocky once July rolls up and even the most ardent rep film fanatic is challenged by ten, twenty, even so much as a thousand classic screenings in a single day. Okay, a thousand might count as a slight overreach, but you just wait, smug knuckleheads. Filmpocalypse looms. Today's tomfoolery be thus;

Continuing series this day include The Apu Trilogy at Film Forum, CinéSalon - Jean-Claude Carrière: Writing the Impossible at the French Institute, and Glorious Technicolor: From George Eastman House and Beyond at MoMA. The unhinged unspoolery be thus;

I lobby with great reticence on behalf of any event not related to big-screen viewings of repertory cinema, yet I make exceptions on rare occasions. And here's one of them. If you're a collector of classic films please be aware that Barnes & Noble is winding down its magnificent DVD & BluRay sale, one that slashes 40% of the list price. Items like the newly remastered and restored MR. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON, William Dieterle's THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME, and Stanley Kramer's JUDGMENT AT NUREMBERG, as well as newer, cultier selections like the Pam Grier vehicles COFFEY, FOXY BROWN and FRIDAY FOSTER, and let's not forget the entire Shout/Scream Factory catalogue, are your to be had for a very VERY reasonable price. My advance apologies to those who've credit ratings I've just inadvertently destroyed. But hey, it's worth it.

The kino kaos be thus;

B stands today for Brevity, for needing a Break, for the exhausting Bustle of Manhattan, the eternal Bombast of its residents, and the unrelenting Battle to retain and even inject one's love for the old NYC into the ever-changing New New York. And it's L as in LADDER, Otis!

Sorry, I went the full Hackman on that last one. Forgive the outburst. And the irrelevance.
