Thursday Night Movies “Cruising” (1980)
Step into the shadows of 1980s New York with a free screening of Cruising, William Friedkin’s gritty and controversial thriller starring Al Pacino. The film dives deep into the hidden world of the West Village leather scene as a young undercover detective is sent to track down a serial killer targeting gay men. Raw, unsettling, and unapologetically bold, Cruising captures a city on the edge — vibrant, dangerous, and pulsing with subcultural energy. Join us for a rare opportunity to revisit this cult classic, discuss its legacy, and reflect on how much the city has changed — and how much still lingers in its shadows.
Time: 6:00-8:00 pm EST
