Dear Rabbit fans!
this week our screening room turns to German New Wave visionary director Werner Herzog and his controversial film 'Fitzcarraldo' (1982). Inspired by true events, Herzog showcases the follies of movie making by accomplishing this monumental production without using special effects. The story follows the journey of an opera-loving madman (played by Klaus Kinski) who is determined to drag a boat over a mountain in the middle of the Amazon jungle. 

Hope you can make it. Bring all your friends!
Rabbit will be waiting with couches and booze.

on Wed, 03/30/2011 - 21:56

This week at Rabbit,
we are screening Jacques Tati's comedic masterpiece where dialogue is replaced by visual whimsy and where the absurdist basis of modern consumerist culture of the 50's plays the main character. Tati is comparable to the likes of Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, and "MON ONCLE" is Tati's first movie in color and arguably his best work supported by many awards and honors.

Come join us with some drinks and comfy couches!

on Wed, 03/09/2011 - 21:56

This week at Rabbit!
we are screening a landmark movie that inspired the birth of American independent films, John Cassavetes' first, SHADOWS. Shot in the late 50s in Harlem, with handheld camera and semi-improvised dialogue, it breathes the themes of the Beat Generation jazz and touches realistically the subject of interracial relationships, still very taboo at the time. 

As an homage to our dear city! Come cozy up in the couches for a evening of drinks and authentic NYC jazz.

BYOB - FREE
