Film Forum

While your local AMC is serving stale popcorn and crowd-pleasing "hits" (um, Vince Vaughn as Santa's big bro), Film Forum—the premier destination in Manhattan (and the country) for noteworthy independent and foreign films—plays to a more discerning audience. Instead, they show films like Lagerfeld Confidential, a documentary about House of Chanel's mad designer, and enough silver-screen classics to satisfy even the stuffiest cinema snobs (Divorce Italian Style, Last Year at Marienbad). Find out the address to e-mail to receive a Run of Engagement pass, good for two tickets to any show (seating not guaranteed), go to the Privileges section of details.com.
