Fountain Theatre is a charming neighborhood theater that showcases foreign and independent films in a historic 100-year-old building. Known for its good sound system and unique film selection, it provides a delightful experience for movie enthusiasts. The theater features a concession stand offering fresh popcorn with real butter, hot teas, and sodas. Guests can also bring alcoholic drinks purchased next door at LA Posta, thanks to a connecting door. While the seats are old and may not be the most comfortable, arriving early allows visitors to choose their preferred spot. The film society that operates the theater presents an eclectic mix of movies, including the annual screening of Oscar-nominated short films. Fountain Theatre is run by dedicated volunteers who ensure a wonderful atmosphere. For those looking for budget-friendly options, Wednesday admissions are just seven dollars, making it a great choice for anyone who loves films in a cozy setting.
This is a sweet old theatre that plays unique films at a decent price with a small concession area and other nearby shops to walk around and see before or after the film. Parking does require a little looking around, especially on busier days like weekends, events, or holidays.

A beautiful and well maintained venue.
I went to my friend's graduation party here and I may be returning for a future screening.
