The Sacrifice 1986
Three years ago I sat in the car on my phone and saw a bunch of people talking about a filmmaker named Andrei Tarkovsky.

Nevertheless I spent the next hour looking up "Tarkovsky Ranked" and sifting through dozens of refined opinions and watch guides for someone I had never heard of two hours prior.

Memoria 2021
Yes this movie is amazing and yes you need to seek it out if possible but I'd like to take a moment to express my gratitude towards the Chelsea Theater and one of its employees, my friend Patty.

The Chelsea has provided opportunities to see movies on the big screen that I would have never…
