HISTORYApril 23, 2013
This Egyptian revival theater was developed by Sid Grauman and Charles E. Toberman in 1922 to accommodate the growing population of Los Angeles.

The place you must visit in Hollywood to watch a movie. Staff is very friendly, and the place is just beautiful. Check out the Netflix store for cute goodies. Bear in mind that they don’t take cash.

A lavishly designed movie theater from the more glamorous days of Hollywood; motifs inspired by ancient Egypt. Fell into disrepair and recently restored, but still elaborate inside and out.

Love Indie film? Why not check out Indie online radio. We play commercial free handpicked global lounge grooves. 24/7. Great for a chill night at home, dinner parties or the work place.

Great independent films. The reviews are right and balcony seating is the best

I'm all about the balcony. The Miyazaki films being shown Feb 2012 are wonderful! $9 student tickets is a steal (even if you haven't been a student for a few years).

The best place to sit is the balcony. Get there early so you don't have to stand in line with all the latecomers!

The best spot for classic movies. They also host Q&A on a regular schedule with directors, cast and crew of classic and upcoming movies.

Capitalizing on the Tutankhamen craze, Sid Grauman opened his 1st movie palace in 1922. The 1st modern premier, for Doug Fairbank’s Robin Hood was held here. It is now home to American Cinematheque.
