I don’t know what New York, Chicago or Los Angeles has for classic movie houses, but here in Milwaukee we have the Times Cinema on 59th and Vliet. They used to show classic movies almost exclusively, but unfortunately, an all-classic cinema isn’t viable in Milwaukee. What a shame.
Take Rear Window as an example: a classic suspense plot set in a two-room apartment. A timeless piece of entertainment, enjoyed by my mom, Jackson (9) and me. You can rent it, but you miss out on the community experience. Think of being the only one at a concert vs. being part of a large audience.
It looks as if they might start showing classic films on a limited basis. We can only hope.
