I adored PAPER TIGER, “the kind of movie they don’t make anymore" that, thankfully, James Gray keeps making.

Have been a fan of Los Javis since Veneno, so it was an absolute pleasure to have a brief chat with them (and Guitarricadelafuente!) about La Bola Negra, Lorca's influence, and the way people talk about the Spanish Civil War.

ZI is a "welcome return to Kogonada's indie roots . . . the film has a spontaneous and present quality that recalls some of cinema’s greatest city films."

EVERYTIME opens today for one week only. @sbodrojan explains why it can't be missed.
The formally audacious, genuinely startling, altogether extraordinary EVERYTIME, by Sandra Wollner, premieres today at #NYFF. Review by @sbodrojan:

Was honored to write the essay for @Criterion's release of the unforgettable 1983 domestic horror film TESTAMENT.

Now I'm thrilled to present the film on 35mm with director Lynne Littman in person this Saturday @MovingImageNYC. Don't miss.
Sublime, underseen, underappreciated. Don't miss your chance to see it on the big screen.
James Gray’s exquisitely mounted drama of New York immigrant lives at the turn of the last century forgoes period piece grandstanding in favor of finely etched authenticity.
See THE IMMIGRANT this Sunday, part of our James Gray's New York series.

The scariest and subtlest movie about the end of the world in American cinema history.

What better way to end our annual Pumpkins list and say Happy Halloween than with a Corman-Price-Poe gem?
Here's Julien Allen on THE TOMB OF LIGEIA, "the series’ biggest artistic outlier and most forward-looking, and perhaps Corman's most beautiful."

A genuinely eccentric spin on the vampire story, integrating uncanny puppet effects with its live-
action storytelling, this unsettling, lovingly crafted—and often funny—period creep-show is a new classic.
Don't miss THE VOURDALAK this Saturday!

THE APPOINTMENT's fusion of nightmarish dream logic and domestic psychodrama is as cozily enveloping as horror gets.
@brofromanother on a true '80s oddity for our sixth night of Pumpkins:

MEMENTO MORI boasts dreamy images of adolescent turmoil and heartache that get under the skin. @kimchimarx gets personal about this modern Korean cult classic for the fifth night of our Pumpkins series:

F. W. Murnau's eternal NOSFERATU screens tomorrow night with live piano accompaniment @MovingImageNYC. Here's @cwik_greg on the film's influential combination of naturalism and the surreal:

Taika Waititi's bad adaptation of Ishiguro's KLARA AND THE SUN is childish in its reluctance to approach anything that was difficult in the novel. @katienconnell reviews:

Long unavailable, E. Elias Merhige's surreal 16mm black-and-white nightmare BEGOTTEN has been restored, and this singularly grimy, gory object is the fourth night of our Pumpkins series, per Jeff Reichert:

A deeply queer feast of pre-Code bizarreness, James Whale's THE OLD DARK HOUSE is our third Pumpkin of 2026. @celizotte on the film's perverse pleasures:

Adrien Beau’s ingenious twist on vampire folklore has the feel of a classic horror short story, while its daring marionette effects and super 16mm cinematography create a singularly eerie experience.

Hannibal Lecter, sure. Real Anthony Hopkins heads shiver at the thought of his Charles “Corky” Withers in 1978's creepy ventriloquist thriller MAGIC. Playing today @MovingImageNYC in 35mm.
