"We may someday look back with gratitude
at Film Forum's repertory operation
as a golden age unto itself."
- Philip Lopate, The New York Times
Dear Friend:
In 1987, Bruce Goldstein joined Film Forum as Director of Repertory Programming. Thanks to Bruce's work, Film Forum remains one of the few cinemas in the U.S. to present full-time repertory programming rich in rarities – and breathtaking new prints of established classics. We've premiered nearly 1,000 new and restored movies. You may catch a festival devoted to Film Noir, Billy Wilder, Pre-Code, Agnès Varda, Robert Ryan, Fritz Lang, Al Pacino, or silent gems with live piano accompaniment.

Why has repertory become an endangered species in the U.S.?
|
Why does repertory survive at Film Forum?

The support of Film Forum donors offsets the financial downside that repertory entails. Members and donors give more than $800,000 annually to help defray operating costs.
Please join our celebration of Bruce's 25th anniversary.
Make a contribution – of any size – to our nonprofit cinema.

What do I get for my donation?
Our sincere thanks – and the satisfaction of knowing you've put your money to work keeping classic movies on screen. What don't I get? No ugly logo-embossed coffee mugs, totes, refrigerator magnets, mouse pads, key rings, scarves, ashtrays... |
Many thanks. We look forward to seeing you at the movies.
Best regards,
Karen Cooper
Director
