Metrograph

Born in 1928 and raised in the then-working-class enclave of Bras in São Paulo, Nelson Pereira dos Santos grew up with a profound sense of the intimate connection between art and politics.

Every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday: a series for connoisseurs of cocktails and nocturnal film freaks to hobnob, clink glasses, and see some of the best and most bizarre in cinema. The Commissary will be serving drinks and a special late night menu into the wee hours. This Weekend: EVANGELION: 1.0 YOU ARE (NOT) ALONE + EVANGELION: 2.0 YOU CAN (NOT) ADVANCE.

Playtime is Metrograph’s regularly-recurring weekend matinee series of studio standards, animated adventures, and foreign-language frolics, kid-friendly in content but selected becausetheir quality has been proven plain to moviegoers of all ages. Revisit the movies you know by heart, take a chance on something you’ve never heard of—and be sure to hang around to talk about your favorite scenes over brunch in the upstairs Commissary. Every Saturday and Sunday at 11am—bring the family! This weekend: THE BAREFOOT EXECUTIVE with Kurt Russell.

This monthly series highlights unique archival elements, including recent restorations and film prints from the Academy Film Archive by celebrating classic moments from the Academy’s 90-year history.
