Metrograph

Metrograph is an independent two-screen movie theater at 7 Ludlow Street in the Dimes Square section of the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Metrograph focuses on rare archival screenings (35mm and digital), special premieres, and Q&As. It opened in 2016 with two theatres, a bookstore, a "curated" concession stand, and a restaurant. It was founded by Alexander Olch, who is better known as a designer of men's ties.

Programming
The Metrograph screens both new films and revivals of older films. The schedule is programmed by Jake Perlin and Aliza Ma. It also occasionally hosts private events such as premieres of movies and TV shows.

History
The Metrograph initially opened in 2016 with two theaters, both equipped with DCP, 35mm, and 16mm projection equipment. Theater 1 is significantly larger than Theater 2. After closing in March 2020 due to COVID-19, they reopened September 1, 2021, several months after movie theaters were legally allowed to reopen in New York City on March 5, 2021.

Online
In July 2020, Metrograph launched a digital membership with live screenings and on-demand movies available to watch at home.
