Hellmouth strikes again

 

EVG reader TechSquared shared this quick clip from last night on Avenue C between Second Street and Third Street... we always enjoy a bubbling hole in the street!

Speaking of Avenue C, did anyone catch this geyser during the middle of last month between Seventh Street and Eighth Street...?

Anthology Film Archives hosting an epic Willem Dafoe movie series

The Anthology Film Archives is paying tribute to the always-seems-to-be-working Willem Dafoe

The actor has worked with directors such as Abel Ferrara, Martin Scorsese, Kathryn Bigelow, David Lynch, Paul Schrader, Lars von Trier, John Waters, Wim Wenders, David Cronenberg, Sam Raimi, Wes Anderson, Spike Lee, Werner Herzog, and Sean Baker, among many others. 

The expansive "Wild at Heart: Willem Dafoe" series will feature several of these collaborations. The series runs from Feb. 7 to 26, and Dafoe will appear for a Q&A following a few screenings. (And both "Wild at Heart" screenings are already sold out.)

 More details and ticket info here. The Anthology is on Second Avenue and Second Street. 

Dafoe lived for a time in the East Village after moving to NYC in the 1970s.

Saturday's opening shot

Early morning view from 14th Street and Avenue A... the photogenic clouds will allegedly give way to sunny skies later today, per the Weather Channel.
