Some photos of the Carpenter Center and the Harvard Film Archive screening room.

It’s a cool building, but as you can see in the third photo, the entrance to the theatre is tucked away under an overhang, nearly hidden from view. It’s too bad this facility doesn’t have the prominent street presence that it deserves.
