When author Foster Hirsch asked if we were seeing NIAGARA (1953) for the first time, most of the crowd at @filmforumnyc.bsky.social raised their hands. I love that. The emotional investment of new audiences keeps familiar films fresh and vibrant. It's why I pay to see movies I already own. #FilmSky

I celebrated Marilyn Monroe's centenary w/ NIAGARA at @filmforumnyc.bsky.social So potent was her sexuality in this 1953 Noir, Foster Hirsch said in his intro, that Fox re-crafted her as the "innocent, dumb blonde." "This is Marilyn as you've never seen before—and were never allowed to see again."

MARILYN 💯 , a dazzling 13-film festival commemorating the 100th anniversary of Marilyn Monroe’s birth – starts today at Film Forum through Thursday, 6/11! 💋 🎟️ and showtimes at buff.ly/mFdFvE3

A fan of Pre-Code? Thank this guy. Bruce's advocacy and programming has directly resulted in studios preserving in 35mm a wealth of Pre-Code titles that premiered at @filmforumnyc.bsky.social. (Of course, he was my first call when we discovered the uncut BABY FACE at @librarycongress.bsky.social!)

Visconti may be the diametrical opposite of Antonioni in the postwar Italian cinematic pantheon, but the film that his 1951 melodrama Bellissima (opening Friday at @filmforumnyc.bsky.social in a new restoration) is closely related to (and maybe inspired?) is The Lady Without Camelias:
