Filmmaker Magazine Presents, a monthly screening series at the Paris Theater, will host a collection of star-studded events for the start of 2025. In January, the Paris will welcome director James Ivory and actor Kyra Sedgwick to the Paris Theater for a special presentation of 1990’s Mr. & Mrs. Bridge, screening on James Ivory’s personal 35mm print courtesy of the Yale Film Archive. In February, Greg Mottola’s 1997 feature directorial debut The Daytrippers will screen with actors Hope Davis, Liev Schreiber, and Campbell Scott participating in a Q&A. And in March, director Kelly Reichardt and producer Larry Fessenden will join us for a screening of their 2008 film Wendy and Lucy, screening on 35mm.

The Paris Theater is proud to partner with Filmmaker Magazine, a publication of The Gotham Film & Media Institute, on this screening series dedicated to connecting audiences with the new and established film artists who make New York City the center of independent media culture. Guided by the magazine’s Editor in Chief Scott Macaulay and Director of Editorial Operations Vadim Rizov, this series will regularly showcase one-of-a-kind film screenings paired with in-depth, live discussions led by Filmmaker Magazine writers with the key talent responsible for bringing the films to life.
