    "You use big words to say simple things," says Augustine (Soko), an illiterate kitchen maid, to the esteemed doctor treating her for the distinctly female malady "hysteria." This would be a show of boilerplate feistiness in most films, but in... More »

  • 2012 | Best Repertory Film Programming

    A glimpse into the Voice archives at film listings from 30 years ago shows that Manhattan, as a moviegoer's movable feast, is now but a shadow of its former self. How is it, then, that there are still nights when one has to choose between a half-dozen unmissable cinema options? Because excellent programming generates competitive excellence in turn: Anthology Film Archives stays on its different-drummer beat; Greenpoint's Light Industry has the cajones to collide Todd Phillips and Todd...

  • 2011 | Best Movie Revival

    Erupting for a week-long run out of Film Forum's already zesty Robert Ryan retro, Samuel Fuller's 1955 House of Bamboo is no one's idea of a classic: a wide-screen, luridly Technicolor tale of love and corruption in the pachinko parlors of Tokyo that reeks of grind-house and Eisenhower–era triumphalism. Writer-director Fuller went on location in Japan to make the movie, and he never lets you forget it, madly shoehorning as much local color as possible into the action (every other shot... More »

  • 2011 | Best Place to Watch Old Movies

    Full-time nonprofit cinema Film Forum is still your go-to place for watching classic, avant-garde, independent, and foreign art films, not only because it features more of them, consistently, than just about anyplace else, but also because, like many of the movies it shows, it has its own rich history. It opened in its initial spot in 1970 as a screening space with 50 folding chairs and a projector; now it's a three-screen movie theater with 489 seats, many with donor-name plaques on the... More »

  • 2000 | Best Movie Theater Candy

    Decadence is the word for the Film Forum snack experience, where you can sip cappuccino and fork homemade cake in a theater that offers mostly foreign and independent films. The best--yes, the best--lemon cake taunts you from its glass case. Giant cookies and cranberry cake, croissants, and orange-poppyseed slices line the shelves, and there's a whole rack of herbal and caffeinated teabags. You can't get regular candy bars like M&Ms and Twizzlers, but chunky, fat Toblerone bars in... More »
