I just got to see it again on 35 at the Museum of the Moving Image, and it was bliss. The restaurant where the movie begins/ends is right around the corner from Film Forum in Manhattan - you can actually see Film Forum in the background when they peel out en route to Lincoln Tunnel.

Robyn

Fav films you've seen this year, eward?

Alethia

New releases? Green Knight, Old, Undine, Card Counter...

Oldies/rewatches: Just about every Carpenter I've revisited (particularly Starman, Big Trouble, and They Live), In the Mood For Love 4K, Possession 4K, the 35mm Bogies I got to see (In a Lonely Place, They Drive By Night, TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT *better than Casablanca*, The Big Sleep), ISHTAR ISHTAR ISHTAR

and the Licorice Pizza trailer, obvi.

and last but certainly not least, the masterful SHADOW KINGDOM starring the Great Bob.

Robyn

Ooh, Shadow Kingdom! I had completely missed that one.

You also reminded me that I has to watch more Ray. They live by night is probably one the best films I've seen in the last few years. How is A Lonely Place?

Alethia

In a Lonely Place is fantastic. Especially enriching when viewed with a little LA experience under your belt.

I highly recommend you read this as a primer:

This was my month of May '23, 'til now.

The Ninth Configuration, Beau Is Afraid, and Straight Time (1973) have been my favorite first time watches of late. Good compasses.
