Museum of the Moving Image

TIME : 2016/2/18 10:31:33

This super-cool complex is one of the world's top film, television and video museums. Galleries show a collection of 130,000-plus artifacts, including Elizabeth Taylor's wig from Cleopatra, nearly everything related to Seinfeld and a whole room of vintage arcade games. Interactive displays – such as a DIY flipbook station – show the science behind the art.

You can also try your hand at film editing (including re-dubbing the ‘We’re not in Kansas anymore’ scene from The Wizard of Oz ), and get nostalgic over an impressive booty of vintage TVs and cameras. The museum's temporary exhibitions are usually fantastic, as are the regular film screenings – check the website for details.
