This movie theater was in 2004 restored to its original Neo-Colonial, Art Deco glamour, and now operates as a not-for-profit arthouse cinema showing foreign, independent, and documentary films. Look for events and discussions with filmmakers and critics. (Gene Wilder curates an annual series of his favorite films.) The Avon also has a series devoted to cult favorites like Planet of the Apes and The Big Lebowski.
