Ten curated Scope NYC picks for Sunday, April 19.
A weekend matinee with this much built-in affection is an easy yes.
This is the rare daytime ticket that still feels like a live crowd event, not filler.
The matinee works if you want the bigger theater slot without giving away the night.
New Directors/New Films remains one of the best ways to catch the city paying attention in real time.
The Django is at its best when it gives the afternoon some shape.
A Chain anniversary bill like this has enough edge and memory to justify crossing the river.
A Django trio set is one of the cleaner ways to hold onto the evening after an earlier film or matinee.
Hekselman is the most reliable way to keep Saturday night from diffusing.
This is the stronger club-room pick if you want something current without going bland.
The Biennial is still worth keeping in the mix when you want one big institutional stop that actually says something.
