When I first started working at the @am_cinematheque I had to run up to the Aero Theatre office. Only, no one told me Donald Sutherland was in there. By himself. With the lights off. Standing in a corner. Silently. That will always be the greatest jump scare of my life. RIP GOAT

How is the @am_cinematheque able to secure so many rare 70mm prints? It starts with the highly skilled, highly dedicated team of union projectionists led by chief Ben Tucker. Their print handling along with FIAF certified booths help AC film programmers secure rare 35/70 prints.

I can count 5 films released in 70mm that had the word LAST in the title. Sadly THE LAST DRAGON is not one. I believe it was originally going to be released in 70mm as it’s apparently listed as such in Dolby’s records.

When I become a time traveler I think one of my first stops will be to see Paul Schrader play charades with Anthony Perkins and Berry Berenson. I’m guessing it happened preCAT PEOPLE release, so maybe I show up in 1981 and take in a few Fernando Valenzuela games while I’m there.

Want to watch a film with 2 different sized black poodles this weekend? Turn on the Michael Caine 1990 crime comedy A SHOCK TO THE SYSTEM or if background poodles are more your speed look to rent Jonathan Demme’s under-appreciated 2004 political thriller THE MANCHURIAN CANDIDATE.

What’s always fantastic about @am_cinematheque ’s #BleakWeek every year has been discovering films that shock your senses, challenge your way of thinking & stir group discussion after. Yes, they can be deliberate downers, but they’re all beautiful, masterful, profound works of art
