Yelp.com Review - by Paul D.

4.0 of 5 stars. Yeah, it looks like part of a rundown high school, but if you're looking for a great and inexpensive venue to host a private screening, be sure to give Anthology Film Archives a call. Their rates are...

Yelp.com Review - by Carrie L.

4.0 of 5 stars. There is really nothing else like this place. Caveat Emptor: this is a die hard cinephiles paradise, not a AMC 20 type theater. The last film I saw here was a completely (absolutely) silent film...

Yelp.com Review - by Maria G.

2.0 of 5 stars. Truly awful theater. I got a gift membership this year so I've been checking out their listings, but mostly I come up empty. They'll have something I want to see once in a blue moon, but usually their...

Yelp.com Review - by Wally C.

1.0 of 5 stars. Does NYU own this place? The last time I saw something here, there was no ac, the lobby was like going into a high school gym. The screen was flimsy and swayed with the breeze that was coming from...

Yelp.com Review - by Trac V.

5.0 of 5 stars. Other repertory theaters - Film Forum, Lincoln Center, MoMA - are like dependable radio stations running loops that you know will give you Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, and now, Nirvana, if you were to...

Yelp.com Review - by carol w.

4.0 of 5 stars. This place is cool! I watched a film here on Friday and afterwards, there was a Q&A with the directors. I loved that! If only I lived closer, I'd be coming here all the time.

Yelp.com Review - by David J.

4.0 of 5 stars. Anthology Film Archive has a great selection of movies. The selection alone makes it worth visiting. It tends to draw a young, hip crowd, (compared to say, MoMA). It tends to bring in the crowds,...

Yelp.com Review - by Gerard P.

4.0 of 5 stars. My favorite independent movie theater in New York, bar none. Screens films that you won't see anyway else, e.g. the great documentary, August in the Empire State, as well as ones that you can probably...

Yelp.com Review - by Matt L.

5.0 of 5 stars. Anthology is a pretty solid short-hand explanation for why, despite everything, it's still worth it to live in New York. A city this big is bound to get something right every now and then.

5.0 of 5 stars. A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of actually digging through the paper archives at Anthology and it was an unforgettable experience. I'm a fan.

Yelp.com Review - by Benjamin L.

4.0 of 5 stars. I like to bash the Angelika for having great programming but being a horrible venue in terms of the quality of the viewing experience. Anthology is similar but the programming here is so above and...

Yelp.com Review - by Gotti B.

4.0 of 5 stars. Excellent retrospectives - though the films seem to arrive a bit after they get to places like Berkeley's Pacific Film Archive or the Cinematheque of Ontario in Toronto. The price is still good,...

5.0 of 5 stars. AFA is constantly showing great but little known and upcoming directors/groups in addition to a litany of classics and ephemera. The 'Unessential Cinema' series is especially cool, screening a bunch...

5.0 of 5 stars. The anthology itself is dark, mysterious, a bit haunted and beautiful. Sometimes I can hear the walls inhaling as they feast on the latest show. Plays retrospectives and independent films. Not...

uncomfortable seats, unbelievable films

This cinema is one of the reasons we live in New York. I simply cannot count the number of films that have been shown here, and only here. Every night, several obscure, forgotten, or half-remembered g...

Rare and avant guarde films usually get their first showing here by Vanessa B. at InsiderPages
