Terence Dixon’s Meeting The Man: James Baldwin In Paris screens tonight at the Queens Drive-In, weather permitting.
Film at Lincoln Center has announced that the New York Film Festival postponed Brooklyn Drive-In screening on Sunday, October 11 of William Klein’s exceptional Muhammad Ali, The Greatest (1974), preceded by Terence Dixon’s confrontational Meeting The Man: James Baldwin In Paris (1971), shot by Jack Hazan has been rescheduled for tonight, October 13 starting at 8:00pm, now at the Queens Drive-In, weather permitting.
The newly restored Muhammad Ali, The Greatest (1974), Klein’s incomparable documentary (Revivals programme selection), is much more than a boxing film chronicling the fights of Sonny Liston vs Cassius Clay, Muhammad Ali vs Sonny Liston, and George Foreman vs Muhammad Ali. What Klein captures on camera in regards to race relations is powerful, exposing shameless bigotry and frightfully timely attitudes.

With the Main Slate of the 58th New York Film Festival offering so many great choices to view, it is easy to overlook the gems featured in other strands.

The New York Film Festival is rolling out a “reshaped” version of its Revivals section for this year’s edition of the festival, with a rich assortment of repertory cinema that runs the gamut from beloved classics to rarities seeking new life. The lineup includes a Tony Leung double bill, thanks to Hou Hsiao-hsien’s “Flowers of Shanghai” and Wong Kar Wai’s “In the Mood for Love,” while Joyce Chopra’s 1986 Sundance Grand Jury Prize winner, “Smooth Talk,” shows off a breakout performance by a young Laura Dern.
Other highlights include Jia Zhangke’s rarely screened “Xiao Wu,” Mohammad Reza Aslani’s rediscovered “The Chess Game of the Wind,” and Béla Tarr’s black-and-white noir, “Damnation.” Opening night filmmaker Steve McQueen also had a hand in the selection: he’s opted to screen Jean Vigo’s “Zero for Conduct,” which he says inspired his latest project, a five-film anthology series,...

Cannes Directors' Fortnight 2018 The French Directors’ Guild, organisers of the Directors’ Fortnight at the Cannes Film Festival, today has unveiled the poster image for this year’s 50th edition of the sidebar selection.
The image is based on a photograph by William Klein who was a regular attendee of the section in its early days.
Klein who was born in New York in 1928 but has lived in Paris for more than six decades, garnered his reputation first as a photographer before branching in to film-making.
It was in 1958, Klein began to explore the moving image, creating his first Pop film, Broadway By Light, in 1958. He went on to produce feature films and documentaries including a satire about the fashion world, Who Are You, Polly Maggoo? (1966); Far From Vietnam (1967); Muhammad Ali, The Greatest (1969); and The Little Richard Story (1980). Messiah (1999), revealed on an epic scale a summary of the...

Since any New York City cinephile has a nearly suffocating wealth of theatrical options, we figured it’d be best to compile some of the more worthwhile repertory showings into one handy list. Displayed below are a few of the city’s most reliable theaters and links to screenings of their weekend offerings — films you’re not likely to see in a theater again anytime soon, and many of which are, also, on 35mm. If you have a chance to attend any of these, we’re of the mind that it’s time extremely well-spent.

Above: French poster for Chronicle of a Summer (Jean Rouch & Edgar Morin, France, 1961). Design by Raymond Gid.There is an essential and vital film series opening today at Film Forum in New York: a survey of 1960s Cinema Verité productions which brings vividly to life a decade of instability and protest as well as a new era of introspection. While this survey of posters doesn’t give a complete look at the series—“more than 50 modern classics which not only changed the recording of social history, but revolutionized filmmaking itself”—since many of the films are not feature-length (some of the shows pair an hour long film with a 30 minute short) and thus were not theatrically released. But those that I’ve gathered do convey the urgency of the movement as well as its seat-of-the-pants guerrilla style of film marketing as much as film making.I’ve not included the...

America's favorite "Little Couple," Jen and Bill Klein, continue their struggle to start a family during the fifth season of their TLC reality show, which premieres tonight.
After realizing they wouldn't be able to conceive on their own, the couple turned to a surrogate in season four, and though the embryo transfer was successful, their surrogate, Cindy, had a miscarriage that left the Kleins devastated. "Pretty much by the next day, I woke up thinking, 'I gotta try again,'" Jen said.
In the upcoming season, Jen and Bill prepare to start from square one, but they aren't sure if Cindy is as dedicated as she once was. So instead of counting on only one method, they decide to pursue adoption as well. The episode documents their first home study -- the couple must give a tour of the house and worries they haven’t baby-proofed it yet.

Little Couple stars Jennifer Arnold and Bill Klein have a lot on their plate. Sure, the new season of their TLC reality show kicks off tonight, but that's the least of their worries.

Read on to find out... The surrogacy is still up in the air, but doctors have been able to retrieve two of Arnold's eggs for the procedure. "At this...

Summer fun in the city? More likely just a short business trip. Kate Gosselin and her eight children, plus two baby sitters and security, arrived at a midtown Manhattan hotel Saturday morning and stayed for a few hours before departing again, apparently headed to a Tlc marketing event. Also on hand at the hotel were the Duggar family, stars of their own TV reality show, and Jen Arnold and Bill Klein of Little People: Just Married. As the family walked through the marble lobby - with Jon Gosselin notably missing - Kate impatiently told one of her sextuplets, evidently in response to a question,...
