- La Dolce Vita
Here’s a schedule of everything playing today.
Looks like anything at the Harvard Exit is a good bet—here’s Paul Constant on These Amazing Shadows:
Every year, the Library of Congress declares 25 films to be “culturally, historically or aesthetically significant” by listing them on The National Film Registry. The only rule is that the movies have to be at least a decade old; music videos and interstitial commercials for concessions have been admitted to the archive. As a documentary, Shadows is way too polite (surely, there had to have been some controversial choices?) and watching a movie fawning over the importance of movies is always a little precious. But there are tons of great clips from brilliant movies, and the little glimpses into the LoC’s efforts to preserve old decaying film provide for plenty of interesting moments.
And Charles Mudede on La Dolce Vita:
If you have not watched this film, you should go and look in the mirror and hate what you see. Those who have not seen the film in a long time must do their best to see it again. If you do not know who Fellini is, please move to Spokane.
And tons and tons more (browse HERE).
Plus, it’s your last chance to see Page One: Inside the New York Times, which Eli Sanders commands you to “DON’T MISS” (he is bossy).
As long as you are posting a truncated para from the capsule reviews for today’s movies, could you at least post things that are in the future? La Dolce Vita has already played today and isn’t playing again and now I need to move to Spokane or something. Regret is basically gnawing on my entrails here, please do not be on the side of the entrail-gnawers.
What @1 said.
La Dolce Vita played from 10am to 1pm. (Only showing)
These Amazing Shadows played from 1:30pm to 3pm. (Only showing)
Posting about these at 3:24pm isn’t too helpful.
What the fuck? Why does Lindy West even bother posting? She can’t be bothered to post until after films play and then we are treated to the same pick 3 times in the same week. Just send her to cover whatever shit about Bridesmaids or Hangovers that’s playing at Regal and her adoring fans can fawn over her witticisms “bitchez”, but for fucks sake please don’t call her a film editor.
hooked was awful
