We screen rare, archival-print films alongside first-run movies in state-of-the-art digital video. "The coolest new movie theater in the world."—GQ

Best Repertory Film Programmers 2016—VILLAGE VOICE

Our restaurant—The Metrograph Commissary—serves dinner 7 days a week, brunch on Saturday and Sundays, and cocktails til late every night. At Metrograph, we're creating a spirit that harkens back to

the great movie palaces of NYC in the 1920s and Hollywood's Golden Age—when writers, actors, and directors screened work, took meetings, and watched films in the backlots and commissaries of the big studios. We also house a bookstore and a magically curated concession stand that has to be seen to be believed. Metrograph opened in 2016. It was founded and designed by Alexander Olch.

“I went to a screening of Flashdance with the cinematographer, production designer, and composer of Maddie’s Secret before we shot the movie, and we were shocked and humbled by how much it seemed to embody every aesthetic principle we had arrived at together. A gauzy, urban fairytale with a plucky ingénue and a disco heart.” —John Early

Introduction by Max Lakner, cinematographer of Maddie's Secret on Saturday, May 30th for FLASHDANCE at Metrograph.

DEAD MOUNTAINEER’S HOTEL (1979), from the writers of Tarkovsky’s STALKER, is a cozy paranoid mystery that feels like Agatha Christie hijacked by New Romantics. It lives in the same synth-laden Euro glam sci-fi universe as THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH and Fassbinder’s WORLD ON A WIRE.

🏨 DEAD MOUNTAINEER'S HOTEL plays at Metrograph starting next weekend

Newly restored in 4K by Deaf Crocodile in collaboration with the Estonian Film Institute and Film Archive.

That the word “fire” appears in not less than four titles of films directed by Ringo Lam isn’t merely a matter of branding—it’s indicative of the temperature of Lam’s inflamed, scorchingly impassioned action cinema; if you could somehow put a thermometer to these films, said thermometer would explode.

So forcefully and repeatedly do Lam’s films posit Hong Kong as a hell on earth, a city that devours its young, a place where the only thing worse than the present is the future, that the results, paradoxically, are something like love letters scrawled in blood.

Starts June 5th at Metrograph.

The progress through a hopelessly shuffled stack of love letters inspires the a-chronological structure of Hong’s Hill of Freedom—Moon So-ri’s second film with Hong—which describes the terse long-distance relationship between a South Korean woman (Seo Young-hwa) and a Japanese man (Ryo Kase) who has built an ardent romantic fantasy around her, only to, on his return to Seoul after some years absence, find himself gravitating towards a friendly coffee shop proprietress (Moon), whose establishment gives the film its title.

Hong Sang-Soo's HILL OF FREEDOM plays this weekend at Metrograph.
