PLAYTIME: Family Matinees
May 19 to July 1
Coming this weekend, next weekend, and ongoing every single Saturday and Sunday, Playtime is a new creatively-curated Metrograph matinee series featuring studio standbys, animations from yesterday and yesteryear, and foreign fare. The content will always be kid-appropriate, but the main criteria for selection is excellence—these are movies for film lovers of all ages, from those just learning to love the cinema to longtime fans revisiting old favorites. Come for the classics, trust us on the obscurities, and talk it all over afterwards with brunch in the upstairs Commissary.
