Playtime After a short closure this summer time, New York City’s Paris Theater reopens in September with a newly-installed Dolby Atmos sound system (making the 500-seat Paris Theater the most important Dolby cinema in Manhattan) and, for the primary time in 15 years, a collection of 70mm screenings.
Highlights embody the primary U.S. 70mm screening of Jacques Tati’s Playtime in 10 years; the primary NYC 70mm screening of Ron Fricke’s Baraka in 10 years; the U.S. premiere of Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s Memoria in Dolby Atmos; a screening of William Friedkin’s glorious Sorcerer as a tribute to the not too long ago deceased director; and the primary NYC screening in a decade of Sam Jones’s doc I Am Trying To Break Your Heart: A Film About Wilco.
Find the complete lineup for Paris’s Big & Loud comeback series, screening from September 1-9, under. For extra details about tickets (a few of that are selling fast!), take a look at the theater’s official website.
