RIP Bruno S.

Bruno S. passed away yesterday, so we're dedicating our very first IFS screening for the FALL to him: Herzog's THE ENIGMA OF KASPAR HAUSER.

This will be a 35mm print from NYer that was only struck four years ago! I was told it's still in great shape and hasn't gotten too much wear-and-...tear. it screens Wednesday, Sep. 8th, at IFS.

Although we're still hammering away at some of the content, the schedule of films is now up and posted on our regular website.

CLOVERFIELD Wednesday, April 7th at 8pm only


Our special guest for the last ALIEN'S ATTACK: SCI-FI SIX-PACK series is a go. We had a bit of a freight when T.J. Miller was taken in for a brain operation and they removed a golf-ball sized chunk of his grey matter, but he's back on his feet and raring to go: CLOVERFIELD's going to have a fun and triumphant Q&A on Wednesday, April 7th at 8pm only

AGUIRRE: THE WRATH OF GOD Sunday, April 4th at 4PM and 7PM


It's official! As of today I can now say, with authority, that we're getting a 35mm print of AGUIRRE: THE WRATH OF GOD straight from Herzog's office in Germany. Why is this import such a big deal? Because it's going to be the original - AND ONLY - English 35mm print in existence. Most of the prints people have seen of AGUIRRE were in German with English subtitles, but what most people don't know is that the German was done later in post-synchronization. And Kinski wouldn't do the the dubs because he wanted more money! So not only do you get to see this film (shot with the 35mm camera that Herzog stole from his film school) on the big screen, you get to actually hear it straight from the mouth of madness.

The screenings are Sunday, April 4 at 4pm and 7pm only. FREE! These are the only un-interrupted screenings that will take place before the CWA breaks it down as part of Ebert's week-long "cinema interruptus." Herzog will be there Monday and Tuesday only! This is truly a once-in-lifetime event not to be missed.
