There are 8 million stories in the Naked City and one night in Kew Gardens, Queens, the gut-wrenchingly tragic tale of Kitty Genovese’s murder was born, helping cement a notion of “outer-borough” grimness and urban apathy. Join Director James Solomon and Bill Genovese, Kitty's brother, for a discussion that questions New York City’s “center” and “periphery,” and re-considers what happened on March 13th, 1964 through the lens of the Oscar shortlisted film The Witness (89 minutes, 2015).
Includes Museum admission, popcorn, and beer provided by Sixpoint Brewery.
Smile, It’s Your Close Up, MCNY's nonfiction film series co-programmed with Jessica Green and Edo Choi of the Maysles Documentary Center, zooms in on key moments, individuals, and communities to pose the question: “What makes New York New York?” Each program includes an introduction or conversation with filmmakers or other notable guests.
