Don't miss any of the action with the Yale Film Archive's new slate of films, all free and open to the public. This spring will feature brand-new 35mm prints of the #1 and #2 greatest films of all time (according to the latest Sight and Sound critics' poll), along with many other pristine prints, three filmmaker visits, a talk on film preservation, and a few more surprises we'll announce soon.
Unless noted, screenings take place on the lower level of the Yale Humanities Quadrangle, located at 320 York Street, between Elm and Grove in New Haven. Doors to the building open half an hour before each screening.
