Celebrating Over 45 years as Long Island’s Premier Not-for-Profit, Member-Supported, Independent Community Cinema

This week, we open the latest film from Academy Award winner Damien Chazelle (La La Land), 'Babylon', starring Brad Pitt & Margot Robbie. "Set in the early days of cinema, when talking pictures were a jaw-dropping phenomenon and Hollywood was still being created, Babylon suggests a deeper reality: the film industry's raw, self-destructive, narcissistic impulses and its glorious, magical results have always been opposite parts of the same whole." - Caryn James, The BBC

This week's special events include an encore screening of the never before seen documentary celebrating 50 years of Neil Young's legendary album Harvest: 'Neil Young: Harvest Time', as well as a Christmas day screening of the beloved animated stop-motion classic 'The Nightmare Before Christmas'.

Make sure to check out our calendar for all of the screenings and special events coming up!

Empire of Light

From Academy Award Winning Director Sam Mendes (American Beauty, Road to Perdition, Skyfall, 1917)

Oscar Winner Olivia Colman and Micheal Ward star in this poignant story about human connection and the magic of cinema, directed by Sam Mendes and captured by cinematographer Roger Deakins. Hilary (Colman) works the front of the house, opening the theater every morning and overseeing a brimming concession stand. When Stephen (Ward) arrives as an eager new employee, the two form a quick, if outwardly unlikely, connection. Hilary hides a troubled past, struggling with mental health, while Stephen, a young Black man, grapples with the racism rampant in 1980s Britain.
