Stranger, smaller-room, and in-the-know Scope NYC picks for Saturday, June 27.
This Bushwick poetry party sounds more like a neighborhood scene gathering than a polished literary reading.
A Robert Moses comedy show at Caveat is a very New York collision of urbanist obsession and stage weirdness.
Millennium is exactly the place for a personal-cinema program with a title this compact and mysterious.
Spectacle's title alone points toward the odd corner of the film calendar, a microcinema gamble with its own private logic.
Comedy, pole dancing, and an INXS theme at DROM is a proudly specific hybrid rather than another generic Pride-week show.
The name is doing no mainstream smoothing, and BCC's Pig Pen is the right small room for something this proudly unruly.
Anthology plus a title this surreal makes the screening feel like a find for people who prefer their cinema slightly unexplained.
A 10 p.m. Spectacle slot for Half-Cocked has the right scrappy, late-night energy for a viewer who wants the rougher edge of repertory.
Public Records gives this late House Of Diggs lineup a serious dance-floor context with enough selectors to feel like a real scene handoff.
The almost-midnight title math is strange before the movie even starts, which is exactly the appeal of this Spectacle pick.
