Anthology Film Archives Review

Dedicated to preserving and exhibiting independent and avant-garde film, Anthology Film Archives comprises a film repository and two gemlike screening rooms in a renovated redbrick courthouse. Committed cinephiles make their way here for hard-to-find films and videos. The Essential Cinema series delves into the works of filmmakers from Stan Brakhage and Maya Deren to Robert Bresson and Jean Cocteau. This is an experience for film lovers, not casual moviegoers—screening rooms can be very hot or cold depending on the outside temperature, and there are no standard movie theater amenities.
