Facets

This humble film non-profit boasts a cinema, video rental store, and distribution label. Not to mention they run one of the largest international children's film festivals in the country. A haven for film lovers of all kinds I can't recommend Facets enough!

Great vibes. Supportive of indie films. Reasonable prices. Gem in Chicago for film

Great place to see a film. Friendly people and great prices.

My favorite theatre in Chicago! The staff is always super friendly, the vibe is great. Prices are very reasonable and the movie selections are top tier. I go to their cold sweat double feature every month- I only wish they did it more than once a month!

Love Facets. I see so many films that would be impossible to see on a screen. They will screen wonderful cinematic art, like The Fishing Place, which I just had the pleasure to see. Thank you!

A great intimate theater. We were there viewing the final film produced by teens at film camp. The film was well done. Everyone learned much about film making, worked hard and had a great time during the week-long camp.

Visited Facets to attend a screening of Showing Up and thoroughly enjoyed the film and the space!! The sound was good, and there are currently a few beer-type options along with the usual cinema snacks which we were happy to discover. Will definitely be back for future independent film showings. So happy to learn about this great unique place!

Facets is truly a gem and a valuable addition to the Chicago Film community. The theatre looks fantastic after it's remodel and the programming has been nothing short of amazing especially for lgbtq+ content and local horror enthusiasts. Highly recommend!!

We booked Facets for my husband's birthday and we had a great experience. We hosted about 18 of our friends for a screening of one of our favorite cheesy movies, and we had the studio space for two hours beforehand. We were able to bring in food, drink, and we could pre-purchase popcorn for everyone. The crew was even able to project short videos in the studio space! It was really easy to work with them and they were very accommodating. The price was a great value for a Saturday night, and all of our friends had such a fun time. We would definitely do it again, and highly recommend doing an event with Facets!

I am sure this was my first time here, but I can't be too sure. The theater is known for very independent, foreign, and left-of-center flicks. We went for the Film fest featuring Blacks or people of African descent in Italian cinema. I got a ticket online and checked in via a guest list. The place had been remodeled some, except for the theater and bathrooms. They were clean at least, but the theater seats were LOW! The concessions were reasonably priced, not low but not AMC ridiculous. The popcorn was good. A reception from the Italian Cultural Institute followed a lengthy post screen discussion. They are located near the DePaul campus at Fullerton so I probably would not get a membership, but I would go back depending on the events.

Keep calling and sending them email requests to contact me regarding joining. No one ever answers the phone or replies to emails.

5 stars for showing the Rose Marie: Wait For Your Laugh documentary! The staff was extremely friendly. Though there isn't a parking lot here, the surrounding area is very residential, so it isn't a problem finding a spot that's a short walk away. Nice, cozy theater. They also offer rentals and snacks.

What a quaint theatre! I love the character it has, downright to it's dirty and dusty theatre chairs. Movies are only $10 and they play independent/indie films so don't come here and expect any Disney movies. They only have 2 theatres I think, so pretty limited. The older gentleman was a one man show the night I went. Unfortunately, the lights didn't come back on at the end of the movie and a friend tripped trying to go out of the theatre, so watch your step ladies and gents. I'm not much of a movie goer (would prefer to watch them in the comfort of my own home) but i'd come back here to support this place for any independent movies that catch my eye.

I like Facets a lot. I go here for the films, which don't show in many if any other theaters in the area. It's a convenient location and easy to get to on CTA. Facts is not a posh movie experience, so those expecting big cushy seats and flavored popcorn will be sorely disappointed. I prefer the big theater over the screening room-- the latter is, in a word, "makeshift." As I said, though, Facets is about the films.

You know...I used to love coming to Facets, but within the past decade or so, their programming has been "off," meaning that they screen dumbly-conceived foreign and independent movies at the cost of alienating most of their customers. Honestly, I could see the place closing within the next few years, which would be a shame, seeing as how Chicago has so few independent theaters left. The programmes that are run by the Siskel (which is a pain to get to) and DOC films (which may as well be in Indiana) and The Music Box are normally much better.

Apropos it's called Facets since it's a many sided, hidden gem. They host film screenings, rent dvds, sell dvds, have a film school, host parties, a children's film camp, and have film fests. I've attended the Second Saturday screening (the 2nd Saturday of every month which feature family friendly short film programs and feature films) and the Chicago International Children's Film Festival. There's also have plenty of movie showings and events for adults. All are films that are obscure, foreign, and fun. This jewel has a good setting and presentation: nice customer service, fun vibe, and tasty popcorn. "A brilliant yet NOT deeply flawed piece of work."

So, I needed to rent La Dolce Vita for the Il Covo party a few nights ago... Of course, since I am a movie moron, I figured I could just swing by my neighborhood Blockbuster and check one out. I walk up to the counter: Me: Hi, do you have a copy of La Dolce Vita I could rent? Uninterested BB employee: La Dolchay WHAT!? Me: Um, ok...thanks any way. So, ok. Blockbuster may have 1400 copies of Superbad, but if you are looking for something a bit more...ahem...independent, foreign, off the beaten path (read: better), then head to Facets. What.a.GEM. Seriously, didn't even knew it existed. I am not a film buff by a longshot, but when duty calls...I'll know where to find it. Obscure titles, helpful staff, quick and to the point.... Walked in, stepped up, a sane/professional film loving clerk helped me find what I needed, checked me in, checked me out...and I was on my way with a 3-disk set of Italian history. Ahhhhh, thank you for being there for me Facets... Price was $5.40 for 2 nights, but well worth it. They have an oddly large selection. I'll be back to catch a flick, methinks...cool place. I mean, unless you LOVE Blockbuster. La Dolce, WHAT!? ;)

As a fan of film, and along time city dweller, I'm almost embarrassed to say this was my first visit to Facets. I have for the longest time wanted to peruse their extensive DVD collection of contemporary, classic and out-of-print video, check out their classes, and take in a featured film in their theater. My film friends and I did that last night with a British crime thriller, along with a handful of other audience members. Entering their modest facility on Fullerton, I had some kind of deja vu experience, as the space reminded me of being in college and attending a film or play. It was not at all crowded, and we had time to chat up the staff and find out more about the membership offerings. Basically, Facets is similar to a brick and mortar Netflix with memberships starting at $8.99 per month, which enable you to take out films, like you would books from a library, one at a time. The selection is impressive to say the least, and they have sections like "employee choices." which are always helpful, in the way that the guy or gal in the wine store steers you to a good bottle or vintage. So I like the vibe, the staff and the small screening theater. It's a good size with, as another patron loudly proclaimed, the most leg room of any theater in the area. Those of you who've flown United will be pleased and happy to stretch your legs. Between this place, and my Netflix, queue, I hope that I'm around for another 30 years so I can take in all the good films out there. Like a kid in a candy store.

I was a member here for a few months. For $24/month you can rent up to 3 movies at a time with no monthly cap, AND you get a discount to their screenings. Seemed like a great deal. The problem was that they never had the films in stock that I wanted. I'd bring a DVD case up to the counter. DENIED. Twin Peaks? DENIED. Rushmore? DENIED. Bottle Rocket? DENIED. Anything by Godard? DENIED. Wim Wenders? DENIED. Wernor Herzog? DENIED. Seijun Suzuki? DENIED. Apparently, as far as art house/foreign/cult films go, my tastes must be fairly popular, because all the films I looked for were already checked out. An unlimited rental membership is useless if you can't keep anything in stock. I give it 3-stars though because they DID have Le Peau Doce, a lesser-known film by Francois Truffaut that I have not been able to find anywhere else in this country. I would probably still rent here on a per-rental basis, but the unlimited membership is a waste of money.

I just moved in to the area a few months ago, and I walked by this place (never knowing what it was) until a few weeks ago, when I finally decided to Google it. I'm so glad I did. This place is a wonderful small theater, and a great small business/non-profit to support! They usually have one movie on screen a week, with lots of weekend times. They have an awesome rental library, tons of options. Plus, you can view all of their rental movies online, and even reserve/order them too! I decided to get a membership to this place, because it's an awesome deal (and a great place to support!) Unlimited one rental out at a time and unlimited access (for two people) to any of their theater shows! All for $8.99 a month, which is the same price as ONE ticket to their theater. So it well over pays for itself after one trip to the theater. Also, they provide movie school/classes/education to schools and children.

Cinematheque is THE place in Chicago for foreign, independent & classic movie lovers. I recently discovered this place during their Warhol film festival and it was great experience. Cinematheque, a small , no frills theater hosts a variety of film festival and programs for the non main stream movie goer. Their video library Facets Multimedia carries some of the most hard to find movies for rental as well. I look forward to their events! Enjoy!

Facets is a breath of fresh air in the world of film. It's real, unpretentious, and has the friendliest staff I have ever encountered in a movie theater. I had a Groupon date, which turned out to be an amazing deal (2 tickets, 2 sodas, and 2 popcorns for $14!). We really wanted to check out a documentary called "My Reincarnation," and fortunately caught it before it ended. The documentary itself was phenomenal, and I felt very lucky to have the opportunity to see it at Facets. I am a sucker for any type of NPO, so I will definitely be coming back here more often and suggest you do the same! 5 well deserved stars.

How should I say this? There is a lot to like about Facets. They are independent, local, and they even appear to have a great selection of hard to find movies. Appear is the key word here. Before signing up for their Nextflix style rental service, I searched the catalog for about 50 movies that have been difficult for me to find. They claimed to have around 40 of those movies, which was outstanding! So, I signed up for the highest membership level available and eagerly awaited these movies. After about 3 weeks, not one of my top 10 selections had been sent. Ok, not to worry, it's only been 3 weeks . . . two months later and not a single movie in my top 10 selections had shown up. A basic breakdown of what I experienced over 2-3 months of the service is as follows: Of the movies listed in the catalog, somewhere between 25-35% are not AVAILABLE. You can add them to your rental queue, but they are either missing or I guess the staff keeps them in the back for their own viewing or something. Of the other 65-75% of the movies in your queue, around 15% will show up cracked in half or completely shattered. You will then have to immediately return the disc and wait about 6 days for a different disc to arrive. The two problems noted above result in about 70% of the queue being available, and 15% of that 70% being destroyed before you receive the disc. THIS LEAVES AROUND 60% of the selection listed in the catalog actually available for viewing. Unfortunately for me, that 60% does not include the titles that I was most excited to be able to rent. The lack of AVAILABILITY in their movie selection makes 3 stars a little too much in my opinion. So this is really 2 1/2 stars on the sole basis of being independent and local.

classes, indie and underground films, excellent selection of dvds to rent. As a distributor, Facets carries everything you need to be fully conversant in great film of the past and present, from all over the world. The theatre is small and seldom are movies sold out, which is a pity.

We were here today for a child's birthday party and had a great time. The staff was very, very friendly. The selection of short films that the kids got to see was perfect and a big hit with the little ones. There was popcorn and drinks to enjoy during the films, and I loved the party room upstairs that was bright and overlooked the street below. This is a great place to host a kids birthday party, and I may plan a party for one of my own kids here in the future.

The best movie selection in town! If you are looking for something other than the latest blockbuster, this is the place to go. They have a lot of independent, foreign and art films that are available anywhere else. They also have a large collection of VHS movies that aren't available on DVD. If you want to learn more about film, Facets offers film classes and screening throughout the year. To really take advantage of the movies here, buy a Patron Circle membership, which starts at $8.99 per month. You get free admission for 2 to all screenings plus unlimited movie rentals through the mail or in person.

A true movie-lover's playground, this place carries the classic, the obscure, the random, the banned, and even the popular. They have a nice selection of film-related publications next to the registers, and a bunch of film guides and inventory listings scattered about, just in case you need help thinking of a movie to rent. Since there's no way of knowing whether or not a film is available to rent before asking, they have notepads and pencils for customers to write down whatever titles tickle their fancies. This way, you won't have to keep going back and forth between the movie collections and the register. But yeah, I love this place. $25/month, unlimited rentals, sans late-fees, and cinema privs. The employees are great also, knowledgeable and unpretentious.

Are you a culture snob? It's ok if you are here! Do you want to catch a retrospective by a Romanian film director and sit next to film makers and film professors? Well, you will find that here also. Ever since I visited this place in graduate school to see some German films in the 1990s, I have always been happy that Chicago has Facets. Sure, New York has Angelica Film and other places showing art house and foreign films, but this place has been providing a cultural service to the Chicago community for decades. I always used to figure that if a woman invited me to a film at Facets I was in luck! Nothing has changed. This place is great, and if you take film seriously, this is the place for you. Parking can be tough. Popcorn is available as are drinks, but don't expect pizzas and giant nachos. A truly great Chicago institution.

If you loved Wedding Crashers - you will probably hate this place. But if you love people like Susan Tyrrell, Timothy Carey, the sound of "Bring Me The Head of Alfredo Garcia" intrigues you or analyzing a David Cronenberg film seems like a fun thing to do - go here. I love this place!

One of my favorite places in Chicago going back years. Facets, back when it was just an independent theater and rental house, was already amazing, but now that they have a Netflix-like home shipment service -- but featuring the kind of movies you can never get from Netflix -- it's even better. They have tons of great classes, including ones for kids who want to get into film; an amazing rental selection with a helpful and enthusiastic staff; a great theater that shows films that won't play anywhere else in the country; and, in Milos Stehlik, a director who's taking it into the future with an eye towards keeping indie film alive and thriving. Magnificent.

Love the Facets, but sadly had to give up my membership recently. I will return one day, though. They actually have more films in that back room than NetFlix. True, a lot of them are on VHS, but most of those are obscure, out of print, or just haven't been released on DVD yet. For those of us who are not so snobby about renting only on DVD it's a treasure trove. It can be a pain to go there for me, but the staff are all very friendly and knowledgable. If you don't like going there, you have the option to have movies (DVD only) sent to you in the mail ala' NetFlix. Nice little theatre, too. Seeing a film there is like going into someone's basement that they have converted into their own personal movie theatre, complete with a tiny snack bar.

Maybe this is a charming place to watch a film or do a birthday party (as Kathleen Beckman was a super kind and helpful person), but for someone just making a simple inquiry into potentially programming a documentary film on immigrants, Charles Coleman who runs their programming was aggressively rude and disrespectful, nonetheless unprofessional, to my call requesting information. In my years of initial phone calls to art and film venues, I have never encountered such a negative person. Hope this heads-up helps another person who finds themselves calling him.

I love this place in theory but because it always seems like such a chore to actually go to Ashland and Fullerton it's mostly just in theory. I've only been there for one movie so far and I enjoyed that experience. I didn't think the theater was as small and uncomfortable as some of the other reviewers. Actually, I thought it was relatively comfortable and, after seeing all those movies in the little boxy side theater at the Music Box and assorted university cinemas by comparison, it was cozy and nice. I actually came to Yelp looking for reviews of their film school classes so if anyone has taken any of these courses, I'd like to know how you enjoyed them. At $25 a class for five classes, it seems like a little much but if it's worth it, well then, I guess the money can be found, n'est-ce pas?

I've been to the movie rental side before and I must admit that their selection is pretty great but the movie cases are so hard to get off the shelf...literally! They're like jam packed and I think the workers secretly get a kick out of watching you try and get 'em out. Last Saturday was my first time in the theatre side. I went to catch the screening of Night and Day for my Film class. The movie was sub-par but it did have some amusing moments. The layout of the theatre is pretty general. I love the fact that every seat has an abundance of leg room but the seats are lumpy and uncomfortable. I had a spring numbing my ass throughout the 2 1/2 hour film so minus a star there and it was pretty cold but it was freezing outside so I won't take any stars away. It was the first truly cold day of the season so the temperature was off, I'll give 'em the benefit of the doubt. The price is pretty much the same as a regular movie theater but they also have a student discount so A+ there. I think this place is underrated. The DePaul kids take it for granted.

I can't believe how many people know absolutely nothing about this repository of great films -- they've been saving & sharing them for decades. Now streaming via Facets Edge so anyone too lazy to leave the house can get educated and at the same time entertained! A Chicago treasure!

If you loved Julien Donkey Boy, Breaking the Waves, Trees Lounge, Run Lola Run...etc, this place is for you. They have the real hard-to-find films and the staff is great at helping you find them. An amazing place that I can't rave enough about!

The film collection is a Netflix collection, and the service is out of date, poor and with snobby attitude. Bad experience.

A nice, SMALL screening room which shows a good selection of mostly new "art" films and documentaries. Sadly, the theatre is rather cramped and the seats are uncomfortable. The ticket prices, if you're not a member, are much too high for what you get. If the film you want to see isn't playing (or going to be playing) anywhere else in the city, seeing it at Facets won't kill the experience but it won't heighten it either.

Great foreign films. Broad and comprehensive DVD and video collection. The audience is nicer than at Gene Siskel, and by nicer, I mean they lack attitude. You can go and make friends, or you can quietly enjoy a film. And you can enjoy a film with people of different ages, races, nationalities. But the DVDs are often damaged, i.e. I missed the most important parts of Elizabeth the other night b.c. of an issue with the DVD. Oh ha ha ha, poor fellow Yelper Joe T. I have been there, too, Joe T.

Chicago is very fortunate to have a cinema resource like Facets. They are one of the leading resources in the nation for rental and purchase of foreign, independent, obscure, and classic DVD and video. They also have two theaters that host live screenings, their non-profit operation allows them to take chances on film fare that would likely be overlooked by most commercial theaters. In addition to regular weekly programs, Facets often hosts filmmaker retrospectives, sneak previews, and meet-the-filmmaker discussions. Serious cinephiles can save big $$ on rentals and screenings by buying into a Facets membership, the best value is their Freedom Pass which allows unlimited rentals and theater admissions for about $250/year.

woo! We just got a membership & now we get movies mailed to us. It's better than netflix & I just found out it's nonprofit???

We have great cinemas in Chicago. Facets Cinémathèque certainly qualifies. Reviewing solely the cinémathèque component of Facets (as interesting as I find the idea of their home-video program to be) provided a good reminder that not all five-star establishments are exactly equal, despite belonging to an echelon defined, at least, by a minimum standard of quality. In this case, I am clearly spoiled by Doc Films, to which Facets Cinémathèque simply cannot measure up. But that nonetheless shouldn't detract from the positives things there are to write regarding Facets -- and they are many. The prices are fair; the space is nicely apportioned, though small, creating an intimate atmosphere very conducive to pre- or post-film dialogue; and the attempts to project films that simply aren't or won't be showcased elsewhere seems both earnest and successful. My first experience, arriving a few minutes early for a nine-o'clock screening on a Wednesday evening, was met with the appreciated surprise of an in situ director commentary and discussion, which had been sandwiched between the earlier (seven-o'clock) screening and the later. The film ('Patang'), which I'd only chosen to see because of my groupon's imminent expiration, likewise surprised: it was quite solid, and not nearly so "inspirationally" saccharine as the few reviews of the film had led me to believe Moreover, the principal attendant - a nice, middle-aged man, who seemed to be running just about every aspect of the enterprise, from tickets to concessions to projection - was incredibly considerate, processing the groupon as swiftly as he could (and swiftly loading up the appertaining popcorn and soda, as well) so that my companion and I could catch as much of the director dialogue as possible. In short: as I exited the screening and strolled out along Fullerton, I was fast considering how soon I could find an excuse to return to this excellent little operation.

The BEST. Facets has been programming the best in independent cinema for Chicago cinephiles for 40 years. With two screenings a night of really amazing work and access to a rental archive of 65,000 films, Facets is, as Roger Ebert once put it, "a temple of great cinema." Support the temple! Or risk it going the way of the Biograph, the Three Penny, the Village, the Fine Arts, and Piper's Alley.

The entire film community in Chicago is very familiar with Facets. Whether you want to catch an art film in their screening room or are looking for that very hard to find title - this is a great place to visit.

I believe that there are two powerful phenomena in the world that turn people into terrible solipsists; Internet and cinema. With the former one we realize that the world accessible to us from any point and it would be suitable here to utilize the most famous motto, "The world just click away". When we enter the Internet domain we feel the Godlike omniscient power to see everything, to track everything, and to assume any identity. As soon as we log off we realize certain physical aphasia and loss of that super power and so on. In the latter one, in the experience of cinema we open up to our inner subjective world. The cinema opens passage to our innermost voyeuristic instincts. And in such moments of fetishistic pursuits for our subjectivity we turn into film, especially our fave ones. The geek who purchases tix in advance to the opening nights of Dark Knight is not to blame. I am well aware of that frustration when you cannot find certain title and it's not even available for rental from Blockbuster or Hollywood videos. There was once instance when I travelled over hundred miles to buy some obscure director's cut. The Facets that time (keep in mind Netflix was not in full bloom that time) was the only store that carried "The World" I wanted for myself http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUHunJGsBMU And when I gave up search for this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiM5XDeTxjk Facets taught me to keep my old VHS cassette player because there are still films produced on VHS

Facets is one of the very very few places in the city I can see amazing films both at their small theater and renting. If it was not for Facets we would miss so many amazing films that otherwise would pass up Chicago. If you cant find a movie here they can get it for you. The staff is so knowledgeable and while browsing their video collection you get to meet other Facets members who share the same passion as you. The theater itself is small but their selection is amazing. I especially love their Night School program and I have learned a lot by attending these. Especially try out their Fright School program during Halloween. If your a big movie geek like I am Facets is a must stop place to rent and watch films.

this is the place to get your fix of independent films. but, you already knew that. it's fairly small and intimate and they have typical concessions but considering the quality of the films screened, i'd kind of expect them to go around serving fine cheeses before the film started, but sadly, there is no cheese platter and wine is not offered. i saw a screening of Godard's 'Pierrot le Fou' here and the Godard writer Richard Brody introduced the film and held a Q&A session. seriously, 'Pierrot le Fou' is one of my favorite films of all time by one of my favorite directors of all time. Facets, i salute you!

Runs great films, has character. Single screen.

I never knew this movie theater existed until a friend invited me here for an indie movie. What a cute location. The theater was intimate and not too expensive. They pop the popcorn fresh, in house and nothing was overpriced like at the big theater houses. I didn't get to shop in the store, but will try to save more time to do that next time I come. If you know of a movie playing there, go, and be reminded of how movie theaters used to be.

I have probably spent a lot of time at Facets, probably more than most people on this review thread (not trying to sound "leet" but trust me there is a reason beyond cenophilia) The employees are wonderful and the theater truly digs deep to play some wonderful and obscure stuff you just won't find anywhere else, in fact I can think several movies I saw last year that still have not found their way to DVD! The video store has a great selection but it bothers me that you must make list, take it up front, have them tell you all 7 titles are rented then have to start all over again. Also they keep a large amount of movies on the shelves that are damaged/lost/stolen and never take the box off the shelf. I understand that part of the deal is to "show off" the collection but this is really frustrating and practically false advertising. I frequented Facets for a long time but now do to my new location and schedule I just don't have the time to stop by and spend the large amount of time this process takes, had to go with Netflix. I still show my support through the theater but wow, please get a new type of "butter" for your popcorn. The ooze that you are drenching it in now tastes like cardboard, seriously.

facets is an amazing resource whether watching first run foreign films or renting an obscure vhs! at 25+/-dollars for a monthly membership that includes an unlimited 3 movie at a time policy and free admission to the movies playing for you and a guest it is an amazing deal. i moved to colorado and still miss facets dearly. i find myself browsing their website often to see whats new! the employees are a treasure trove of info and you shouldnt be intimidated in the least. they know their stuff! facets also releases dvds by many directors that may not have been released otherwise such as bela tarr! simply amazing place that has a vested interest in the film community!

Facets is a tiny non-profit arthouse movie theater that also has a video shop and movie classes. You can always count on them showing something unique and hard-to-find. I just wish the screen was a bit larger and that they chairs were a bit more comfortable.

The bf found this place, and at first I was a hater. It's SOOOO far away (ok fine, not that far but the traffic around there makes it feel like it's a million miles away). Then, they got me. First, they had all these Korean movies that I wanted to see but couldn't find, then they had all these movies that I randomly wanted to watch but, again, could never find, then they got me with their always friendly staff, and then the kicker......the stupid popcorn they sell at their concession stand. I'm easy to win over.....

If you enjoy foreign or indie film, you've got to add Facets to your list. The theatre shows some pretty obscure films but also shows some very poignant selections that are rarely shown anywhere else. Try checking their website regularly at least once per week to see what's rolling through.

Amazing, I think one of the best video rentals in the country. The staff is very helpful and can recommend great selections in any category for you.

Facets should be considered a landmark, I travel from Madison, WI just to visit their cinematheque as it plays movies that aren't available elsewhere in the midwest. I work at a video store, 4 Star Video Heaven, so I don't have a need for their subscription service but our own store carries the majority of Facets exclusive titles.

Facets charged me over $300 for dvds that never arrived, refused to cancel my account when requested. Has anybody else had problems with these guys? I was really excited about this service--they have an amazing selection. I first heard about them from the Filmspotting guys, whom I love. Really disappointed in their service and the way they treat fellow filmmakers.

This shows some great harder to find films but the screen is really small and the price is still expensive, especially when it's a much older film that can be rented. For me, it is not worth it to go here as much because I have a projector and the projection is actually almost as big as the screen here and at $9 per ticket, it just doesn't seem too reasonable. They do have a membership option, however, if you live in the area and love seeing foreign and rarer films.
