The Guild Screenings Dashboard Dashboard

Happy New Year from the Guild Screenings! We have a very dynamic, international schedule this month. Along with studio titles like BAD BOYS FOR LIFE, SPIES IN DISGUISE, and UNDERWATER, we have an array of exciting foreign titles. THE PAINTED BIRD, CORPUS CHRISTI, HONEYLAND, BEANPOLE, and THOSE WHO REMAINED are all on the Academy's shortlist for Best International Film, and all should be seen! Additionally, we have three other wonderful foreign films, THE CHAMBERMAID, AND THEN WE DANCED, and THE TRAITOR. These are all fabulous examples of passionate, vibrant storytelling.

We are working on adding a parking validation kiosk, but it's not ready for prime time yet. So, please continue with the current parking system.

As always, members may bring TWO GUESTS to all regular screenings, except where noted. Seating is first come, first serve. We ask that members frequent the food and drink offerings from Homeboy Industries before the film. On weekends, we serve popcorn, beverages, salads, sandwiches, and fresh pastries. Only popcorn and water are allowed inside the theater, and patrons may not bring in outside food. Free parking is available on garage levels 4 and up only. We'll see you at the movies!
