The Wind That Shakes The Barley

This is the last place to see this great film about the Irish Civil War. It's at the IFC center on 6th Ave and 3rd Street.It's a pity the full name can't fit on one line.

Tribeca Film Festival has started

I wonder if Bobby De Niro sat in this director chair by City Hall.
