7th
For the next four weeks you’ll find extraordinary screenings at the Film Forum. Here are my strongest recommendations, with the showtimes I’ll be attending. Make a note that Sunday April 20th promises the greatest double-feature in the history of cinema. Flat out. (Titles separated by “/” are 2-for-1):
Monday 4.7, Orphans of the Storm, 8:10
Saturday 4.12, West Side Story 4:30
Wednesday 4.16, The Sweet Smell of Success 9:10
Sunday 4.20, The General / Some Like It Hot 7:30 (With live piano accompaniment for The General… this will be the best night you spend indoors all spring)
Monday 4.21, Steamboat Bill Jr. 7:30
Saturday 4.26, Kiss Me Deadly / 99 River Street. 1:00
Wednesday 4.30, The Long Goodbye / Thieves Like Us 7:35
