Senior Curator of Film at the Museum of the Moving Image, Eric Hynes, is my guest in the first segment. Eric and I discuss the Museum's upcoming First Look festival to take place Wednesday, March 12th through Sunday, March 16th. First Look, MoMI's annual festival showcasing adventurous new cinema, returns for its 14th edition, offering a diverse slate of major New York premieres, work-in-progress screenings and sessions, gallery installations, and fresh perspectives on the art and process of filmmaking. This year's festival introduces New York audiences to more than three dozen works from around the world, encompassing feature and short films; fiction and nonfiction; performances and experiments. The guiding ethos of First Look is openness, curiosity, discovery, aiming to expose audiences to new art, artists to new audiences, and everyone to different methods, perspectives, interrogations, and encounters. For five consecutive days the festival takes over MoMI's two theaters, as well as other rooms and galleries throughout the Museum—with in-person appearances and dialogue integral to the experience. Each night concludes with one of five selected Showcase Screenings in MoMI's Sumner Redstone Theater.  In my segment I am joined by the film producer Jack Piatt and singer songwriter journeyman Chris Smither. They are part of the team behind a new short film, "The Singers" which premieres this weekend at SxSW. "The Singers" is a genre-bending film adaptation of a 19th-century short story written by Ivan Turgenev, in which a lowly pub full of downtrodden men connect unexpectedly through an impromptu sing-off. The film explores the complexities of masculinity and the power of vulnerability through art. Chris Smither makes his acting debut in this film directed by Sam Davis.

Rico Gagliano and Eric Hynes on Memorable Moviehouses and More Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw. I'm your host, Nicolas Rapold. Recently, the MUBI Podcast launched a new season of episodes, "Only in Theaters," about the way certain films and moviehouses have intertwined histories, such as the Elgin in New York and the midnight movie phenomenon. So I invited Rico Gagliano, the host of the acclaimed MUBI Podcast, and Eric Hynes, curator of film at Museum of the Moving Image, to talk about some stand-out cinemas—both historic and personally meaningful. Our chat ranges from the Cinematheque francaise and the Tuschinski to the local theaters where each of us grew up watching movies. We also talk about recent viewing and re-watches, from recent documentaries Beba and Nothing Lasts Forever, to Paddington and the Paul Simon vehicle One-Trick Pony.

Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. It's been a while since I've really focused on a documentary on the show, and a terrific opportunity came up with the release of The Viewing Booth. The Viewing Booth is a movie that's been at festivals but for whatever reason, did not make its way to theaters until now. Which is unfortunate because it's one of the best movies I've seen about how we sort out what we think and feel about the hundreds of things we are shown each and every day—intellectually, politically, emotionally. So I was very happy to talk with the film's director, Ra'anan Alexandrowicz, and Eric Hynes, curator of film at Museum of the Moving Image, which is giving The Viewing Booth a two-week theatrical run. We talk about how the movie works and the questions it raises with its simply but ingenious concept. One final note: as you'll hear, this is my first episode in a long time that I have recorded in the great outdoors, so enjoy the mild breeze.
