Thanks to everyone who turned up — often in inclement\u00a0weather — to support our opening weekend at New Plaza Cinema’s\u00a0new venue, Macaulay Honors College on 35 W 67 St.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"On this Indigenous Peoples’ Day holiday weekend we’ll be continuing with screenings of last weekend’s movies, as well as presenting the exclusive US premiere of a new Israeli drama Plan A<\/strong><\/em>, from brother-directors Doron and Yoav Paz. Based on actual events, this film dramatizes an astounding piece of Holocaust history: a post-war plot by a small group of Jewish survivors (including August Diehl of Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds<\/em>)\u00a0 to poison Nuremberg’s water supply or, as another character puts it: “An eye for an eye. Six million for six million.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

We’re grateful to distributor Menemsha Films for offering Plan A <\/em><\/strong>to us ahead of any streaming availability.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

We’ll also be offering encore screenings of:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • The Good Boss<\/strong><\/em>,\u00a0last weekend’s most popular film, chronicling a week in the life of a beleaguered Spanish factory owner, beautifully embodied by Javier Bardem and an ensemble cast.<\/li>\n
  • 1982<\/strong><\/em>,\u00a0our “sleeper hit,” whose Lebanese director Oualid Mouaness joined us last weekend for a moving, deeply personal Q&A in a near-sold out house.<\/li>\n
  • Hold Me Tight<\/strong><\/em>,\u00a0Luxembourg’s Vicky Krieps (Daniel-Day Lewis’ wife in Phantom Thread<\/em>) held us spellbound in a vertiginous, time-hopping narrative of a family’s dissolution,\u00a0from quicksilver French actor-turning-director Mathieu Amalric.<\/li>\n
  • Along with additional shows of three one-of-a-kind, awards-contending documentaries: Fire of Love, Taming the Garden<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0and Three Minutes – A Lengthening<\/em><\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    And coming next weekend, Dead for a Dollar<\/em>, per the NY Times’ Tony Scott’s Critic’s Pick: “Director Walter Hill’s lean, mean western (with Christoph Waltz, Willem Dafoe and Rachel Brosnahan) is a master class in the craft of the B movie… also a reminder that Hill – who at 80 has had a career including cult classics (The Warriors, The Long Riders)<\/em> and smash hits (48 HRS<\/em>) – is a master in his own right, whose artistry has often been overlooked and undervalued.”\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

    More on that in next week’s letter…<\/p>\n
