November 20 at 7pm
Maysles Documentary Center · Harlem • Admission $15 / Reduced $7
Bootleg nutcracker cocktails and a beach cooler fill a tight-knit Bronx summer for Rico until his teenage girlfriend crashes with his family. Joel Alfonso Vargas directs the 2025 feature screening at Maysles Documentary Center, followed by a post-film conversation.
December 12 at 12pm
The Lenfest Center for the Arts · Harlem
Buster Keaton falls in love across the Stone Age, Ancient Rome, and the Roaring Twenties, and yes, it's as delightfully absurd as it sounds. Silent film accompanist Ben Model scores the whole thing live.
February 8 at 7pm
The Town Hall · Theater District
Jason Robert Brown's beloved two-person musical gets the big-screen treatment for one night only, with live performances from Brown and stars Nasia Thomas and Nicholas Edwards. Your ticket funds accessibility upgrades at St. Luke's Theatre.
Roxy Cinema New York · Manhattan
Dive into Patricia Rozema's 1995 queer romance "When Night is Falling" with the filmmaker herself in this post-screening Q&A moderated by Queer 40's Editor-in-Chief.
Film Forum · Manhattan
A scandalous silent masterpiece canceled mid-shoot in 1929 gets its U.S. premiere in a 4K restoration. Von Stroheim's tale of a prince, a convent girl, and a brothel in German East Africa is as lurid as it is romantic.
Metrograph · Manhattan
Metrograph resurrects Radley Metzger's lush, boundary-pushing erotic films in crisp restorations. Expect velvet lighting, theatrical melodrama, and the kind of provocative cinema that rewards adventurous eyes.
Browse Manhattan neighborhood by neighborhood, get ideas just for you, or ask me anything.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
