So who's the idiot (at Metrograph) who scheduled a screening of a 35mm print of Andrei Rublev and Angelopoulos' Landscape In The Mist at the exact same time?

Well, to be fair, this is like, the third screening of both of those films there.

I didn’t see any others during my stay and the website only shows a second screening for Rublev but after I leave and none for Angelopolous. My frustration is perhaps because this was the only time two screenings conflicted, it just surprises me that the only conflict would be at the same venue in the afternoon. I went to several one-time screenings @ 9pm with less than 10 people at a larger theater & my trip to NYC has me wondering how any of the art/rep houses can sustain themselves, but screening hard-to-see things before people get out of work surely doesn’t help.
