What’s Up This Weekend

Some of the highlights from the calendar for this weekend. Remember: More info on these—and the full calendar—is here.

••• Greg Lawrence (Jackie Chan Robinson Gleason as Editor) speaks at 92YTribeca on Friday.

••• Kids-as-gangsters musical “Bugsy Malone” (1976) screens at 92YTribeca on Friday. Directed by Alan Parker; starring Scott Baio and Jodie Foster. Watch the trailer, above, if only for Foster’s intro.

••• Rhett Miller plays City Winery on Friday.

••• Bring on the Rabbit! The 12th-annual Chinatown Lunar New Year Parade and Festival is Sunday.

••• The Museum of Jewish Heritage screens Sunshine (1999): “This epic drama, spanning from the mid-1800s to the mid-1900s, follows the Sonnenschein family through five generations of social and political upheaval and personal conflicts in Hungary.” It stars Ralph Fiennes and Jennifer Ehle—I’ll never forget seeing her on Broadway in Tom Stoppard’s The Real Thing years ago, and how she just glowed.

••• Of course, there’s a bunch of interesting ongoing stuff, too—such as an exhibition of the winners of Soho Photo’s first Small Works Juried National Competition. Below: First-place winner, “It is only in still water that we can see,” by Sue Jenkins (below).
