The 12 Best Movie Theaters in New York City
"You go to the original Angelika—as pretentious as it may sound—for the love of film, its history, the whole shebang of the moviegoing ritual, warts, and all. Sure, you’ll hear the rumble of the nearby subway lines beneath whispered dialogue, and the subterranean layout might leave some wanting for air, but where else are you going to get a kimchi dog to pair with that Romanian indie from the 80s? The real highlight of this theater is their special programming, which regularly welcomes film history to walk their narrow aisles. Filmmakers, directors, and ensemble casts often drop in for panels and q&a’s that feel more like intimate fireside chats than PR interviews."
