Going to the silent movie theatre was one of the funnest things I've done in the few years I've lived here. Why rent a silent film on video when you can watch it on the big screen with live music accompanying the film? Awesome experience, having a pianist/organist playing along with the films was amazing, the old trailers and cartoons that were shown prior to the film were great, as was the live song performed prior to the show, there's even an intermission with hot chocolate and cookies served on a beautiful patio. I felt I was stepping back in time, and even the seat cushions were retro. I'm SO glad I decided to do this, who knew silent films could be so entertaining? It's sad this is the only silent movie theatre left in the U.S., going there made me feel like there should be one on every block.
Pros: great environment, great music, great selections
