About

On the menu this week: If you’ve ever wondered how fast things can fall apart in a tight-knit community, this film answers: about 24 hours. Maybe less. Bring your thoughts—and possibly a towel too—as it’s a hot one in Brooklyn, and tempers are flaring. Who know’s how quickly a sincere challenge against injustice might devolve into a foaming confrontation.

We see a wide variety of films, from old black-and-white classics to cult hits or modern alternative films. We choose a different cinema each week and a different style, but one thing remains, we do this, and have done this, every week since June 2011. If you're a traveller, don't worry, we always watch English language films, and if you're French, don't worry, they always have subtitles. After the film, we usually hang around and have a beer at a bar or along the Seine if the weather is nice and talk about the film, cheese, the finer things in life or whatever might float our way. Come along and enjoy good cinema and good company. -- So an Argentinian, an Australian and a Frenchman walk into a cinema… Every week since June 2011, a different cinema, a different film, a cinematic experience and a beer. Longue vie à Méliès "
