In this Age of Megaplexes it's nice that a standalone movie theater like the Nuart still exists. I've spent more hours there than I can count, and thanks to years of excellent festivals, revival showings, and premieres, some of my favorite film moments were enjoyed at the Nuart. The Cinema Hong Kong film festival that ran there in the early Nineties made an especially long-lasting impression on me. Watching films like "Hard Boiled" and "Police Story" for the first time with some close friends and enthusiastic crowds...good times! The Arclight and the Landmark may be the first choice for many discerning moviegoers these days, but the Nuart will always hold a special place in the pantheon of great Los Angeles movie theaters.

A throwback to the age when a movie theater only had ONE screen. The Nuart has been around for decades and these days plays an indie selection of films. It was recently bought by Landmark Theaters who renovated the theater, updating the seating, carpets, projectors, etc. Landmark luckily didn't change the overall feel of the theater into that of a multiplex with nameless faces shoveling popcorn at you.
The tradition of the Friday midnight movies continues, usually it's a campy/cheesy horror flick, sometimes something from the 80s, or sometimes a classic. This week they are showing Jaws and two months ago was The Muppet Movie, so the Friday midnight show changes genre week-to-week and will usually have something for everyone every couple of weeks.
Saturday midnight is reserved for The Rocky Horror Picture Show complete with The Sins of the Flesh shadow-cast. If you drive by The Nuart around 11:55p on a Saturday, you'll usually see a line of 300 people in underwear standing in front of the theater. Rocky Horror is an experience and so are The Sins of the Flesh.

Since Father's Day is around the corner I thought I'd relate a loving tale about parenthood. It was a cold Thursday night, I was a wayward teenager and my Father and I were arguing. We were screaming at each other and manic with hatred. I stormed out of the house and peeled out of the driveway in my Chevy.
Cursing out my Dad angrily with tears streaming down my face, "fugginassholeDaddammnhisstupidass", blah blah blah. I decided I was going to go to the Nuart Theatre to forget my troubles regardless of what they were showing that night. I slammed my $5 on the ticket counter without even looking at the marquee in front of the theatre. After getting my ticket, I backed up and looked up at the marquee: They were showing "Female Trouble" and "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre".
Whoever books the shows at the Nuart is either a genius or a total psychopath. What kind of inspiration drove someone to book Divine and Leatherface on the same bill? It was nuts, and it also played to a packed house. I almost couldn't find a seat!
I forgot what a dick my Dad was when I saw Divine biting off her umbilical cord giving birth after getting raped (by herself in guy drag), or Edith Massey getting her hand cut off and wearing a claw, or Leatherface hanging snotty teenagers (like me) on meat hooks. Thanks Dad, for driving me out of the house so I'd go to the Nuart. Thanks Nuart, for making me forget what a dick my Dad was. Everybody's cool.

The Nuart is a single theater. Which is fairly small all things considered. But the indie status that it carries makes it bigger than just about any theater around.
If you never been through a Rocky Horror Picture Show experience, then you're missing something from your high school youth. That's like not going to Jr. Prom or something. It's worth it to see the freaks come out at night. Just hide in the back if you're afraid you'll be brought out and made full attention of.
All things strange aside, The Nuart has a lot of first run indie films going at a week at a time span that you wont find anywhere else. Though you'll more than likely have to read subtitles through most of them. If you can't deal with that then you should just go see the latest block buster at any of the AMC or other big chains in Santa Monica.
Ticket prices are still low and the food in the place is pretty nice considering the size. On a weekend night it wont be a surprise to see that whatever they are screening is sold out.
An added bonus is the midnight movies they show when it's not RHPS. You can catch up on some amazing classics through that alone and cap the night/or start it off with some good times.
Although Nuart seems like the theater where that comic book store owner from "Simpsons" would hang out, the snobbery quotient is surprisingly low. It's a lot of unassuming folks who appreciate good cinema that tend to congregate here. And I like it! You won't feel alienated if you don't orgasm over Dario Argento films but if you do, you'll have seriously nerdy conversations with the people next to you and make new friends. And maybe all of you can dress up on Saturday night for the "Rocky Horror Picture Show" singalong (if you've never gone, put it on your bucket list).
Regular tickets are a (low in L.A.) $9.50. Concession stand has Izze drinks (yum), vegan cookies, and the usual popcorn/hotdog/pretzel.
Seats are renovated, comfy and roomy, with plenty of leg room. Be careful when you sit down because the chairs rock back abruptly.
Screen isn't as big as a Vista Theater but there's really not a bad seat in the house and the sound is surprisingly good.
Although they don't have a lot, you can park in the back, or park on the north side of Santa Monica.
The employees are all really nice. Except I tried making a joke to this one older dude who was taking the tickets and it was for some artsy fare and I said "Is this the theater for 'Definitely, Maybe?'" and he totally didn't laugh. I thought maybe he was humorless but then I realized I wasn't funny. Another thing I like to do is drop in next door to Cinefile and ask them if they have "Because I Said So" (or another horrendous movie) in stock. Watch their eyes pop out of their heads.
I love this theater, it's quite possibly my favorite in L.A. There are often special events with the filmmakers, and usually a lot of fliers/brochures so you can feel like you're up on your culture. The folks who run Nuart clearly have passion for innovative, interesting artists and like that Irish dude from "Once" said at the Oscars, "Make ahrrrrt." So yay for good movies and people who like 'em.

I feel like I'd been to the Nuart many moons ago when I first moved to LA and was dating mister smartypants USC film snob. I was also smoking a lot of the ganja back then, so it's all a little blurry.
ANYWAY, the current boy really wanted to see the new George A. Romero zombie flick, "Diary of the Dead," and since it was opening the day after Valentine's Day, I thought I would take him to see it. We got to the theater on Saturday night just in time for the 7:30 show. And while waiting to purchase our tickets, we saw the little sign that said that George A. Romero himself would be at the 7:30 show on Sunday. So naturally, we bought our tickets for Sunday instead.
Parking can kind of be tricky around there since there's no lot, so be prepared to drive around a little. An hour before the show was supposed to start, the line was already wrapped around the side of the building. Once they let people in, it was surprisingly not too crazy. The boy and I split up per usual: I got the seats and he got the snacks.
I snagged a pair of seats in the back row in the middle. The seats are super comfy, but I almost killed myself when I sat down. Since they rock and recline, they sort of flip forward if you sit like you would in a normal theater seat. You have to sit your ass near the back immediately to avoid it rocking forward and hitting you in the head. Oops.
Another plus about this place is that they have delicious vegan cookies at the concession stand. Yum!
After a million previews, George A. Romero finally graced us with this presence and said a few words about his film. The boy was pretty excited, but we were sitting too far back for him to get a good photo of him (my fault of course). But all in all it was a good experience and I plan on coming back to this theater again (even though it's completely out of the way for me).

If you love indie movies but never know what to watch, go to the Nuart because they know what is good!
They sometimes have events where the Director of the movie shows up, last week George Romero came and talked after they showed his new movie "Diary of the Dead"
Really dug my first time here. Except for the noisy old biddies next to me who insisted on having their own commentary to the movie (god, ladies and gentlemen, how we hate those people...) it was a wonderful experience. Nice roomy seats. Not too crowded. Vegan cookies too!
And really nice staff. Extremely conversable. I'd go back just for the experience!
Next time I'll bring a mini flashlight so I can flash it at loud talkers next to me. I WILL get my revenge on the old biddies!
I finally got my Nuart cherry popped this weekend. Just when I think I've run out of cherries to pop, there's one more. (Thanks Mr. R!) Even though I lived in Los Angeles for a long time, I had never been to the Nuart. Shame on me. I know...right??
On Saturday night we went to a French short flick one-two punch with White Mane and The Red Balloon. If you've never seen The Red Balloon, netflix it immediately. It's the cutest movie ever. The restored print quality of both films were quite good. I'm not an expert on old flicks, but even I was impressed. (It helps that I was with a cinephile who knows about things like "restored print quality.")
Since it's a smaller theater, the screen isn't mega-ginormous size but that's okay. The theater is intimate, and the cushy seats are super-comfortable. If I had longer legs, I could lean back and prop my feet up on the seat in front of me. It's nice to be able to push your seat all the way back without worrying about the legs behind you.
I didn't check out the concession stand, but I noticed that they have Izze sodas and real butter on their popcorn. On my next visit, I will have to explore their selections further.
Oh yes, I will be back. I'm just sad that it took me so long to experience the Nuart. Upcoming Friday movies include Serenity on December 7 and The Lost Boys on December 28. The Lost Boys with pre-24 Kiefer Sutherland, both Coreys, and teen vampires....I'm so there!

32 years of living in Los Angeles and I FINALLY went to the Nuart. Unbelievable.
So I'm really not much of a going out to the movies kinda gal. I enjoy a good flick, don't get me wrong, but I also enjoy it in the comfort of my bed, with a glass of wine, some nibblies and a cat or two curled up on the bed with me. People optional.
And so when a new movie comes out and people are all up in my screen saying, "Oh my God!!?! You have to see this movie!! It's so awesome!!?," I take my mental notes and just plan on seeing it within the year when it comes out on DVD or cable.
"Control," however, was not a "wait for" movie for me! Control is the brilliantly shot and told tale about Ian Curtis from Joy Division. It stars Sam Riley, Samantha Morton and a bunch of other actors with bad teeth (hehe, sorry I couldn't resist.) It was also produced by my friend Orian and since I met him a year and half ago, this movie has been his life and what kind of a friend would I be if I wasn't there on opening night. Answer: Not a very good one.
And so my girl Aunny and I made a date a year and half ago to see this film and as the date neared we were like giddy little kids...until we found out we had to drive to the West side!!! Ugh, why couldn't this have played at the Vista?! Oh well, this was a sacrifice I was willing to make and luckily for me, once in the theater, I realized it wasn't a sacrifice at all, because this theater was awesome!
I loved how there's such a cool energy in the place. You just know that some kick ass movies and evenings have played out here. The seats were also super comfy and there is LEG ROOM! That is one of the major reasons I hate theaters. i have some long ass amazon legs so having to pretend like I'm on an airplane for an hour and a half is no fun. Not here though. Roomy and cozy!
The ticket price was I think, $11, which I guess is okay for theater prices. Again I wouldn't really know, cuz I don't go to theaters often. Overall though, I loved our night here and seeing an awesome creative endeavor from my friend on the screen was like the cherry on top of the movie picture Sunday. Yay, definitely check this theater and this film out!

This is a great theater; I have a memory looking for the the Nuart to catch the premier of "Riding Giants." I thought about how perfect it would be to watch this surf documentary in Santa Monica.
I spotted a pretty little girl with her friend in line. I showed I was packing a 5th of Bacardi in my back pocket. It was fall so my jacket covered it.
I got a large diet coke and poured the alcohol in and smiled.
They giggled, and sat next to me.
The divorced one put her arm around mine.
We watched about 90 minutes of surf film goodness.
I remember using the restroom and noticing the rich character of this cinema, "it's a classic"...I recognized the style; the neon outside and the small lavatory smacked of golden age gone bye.
With that thought I took a deep sigh and had a moment of sobriety.
I knew back in Georgia there was a woman who was tired of me and my attics and was waiting for the opportune time to leave me. She had been telling me for years she didn't love me. She even had been to the courthouse to pick up those "magic papers"... it was only a matter of time.
I returned to my seat. "Mary" laid her head on my shoulder. The beauty of the moment was all I needed to make it though the night.
One of these days I'll have a proper girlfriend, and we'll enjoy watching films at the Nuart. If theatres can recapture and pass their former glory , how much the souls of men?

I love this theater. I can't even remember all the great, older films I've seen here before (though Monty Python and the Holy Grail suddenly comes to mind), but I showed up here on Friday night for the midnight showing of The Breakfast Club (I always identified with Ally Sheedy's character, by the way).
What's not to like about a theater that will show movies like The Goonies, Rocky Horror, and Enter the Dragon?
Only thing is, if you see a movie you want to watch, don't wait! I think, with the exception of Rocky Horror, the Nuart will only show it for about a week before they switch to another film.
*Note: this review is for the classic midnight movies, not the regular indie films shown here.
The Nuart used to be a great place to watch midnight movies. The audience's spontaneous reactions and participation made the screenings that much more enjoyable. That used to be the case.
But the "Sins 'O the Flesh" and their ilk ruined a screening of Cry-Baby last night, and for that I think I may never forgive the Nuart. By "Nuart" I mean Sins inside man and theater manager Marc-the-movie-geek-Heuck, who was clearly responsible for giving the bratty attention whores run of the theater.
If people want to dress up for movies, great - I'm not exactly in a position to disapprove of that particular practice. But - and I know they do it every frakkin' week for Rocky Horror - I just don't see why I paid to see a movie, and was subjected instead to watching a bunch of wannabe actors mime the entire thing - poorly - while their spotlight covered half the screen.
And it IS a John Waters movie, so I was prepared for a rowdy audience. In fact, I thought it would be fun. I want to make it clear that I am all for some good participation. What I wasn't prepared for was the level of crappiness here, which seemed to consist mostly of Sins cast members, when they weren't up blocking the screen, walking up and down the aisles yelling: a) exactly what the professional actors in the movie were saying, or b) the opposite of that. You've seen the movie *how* many times, and that's the best you can come up with?
In the audience, there were several contenders for the idiotic yelling championship title, but the winner had to be the guy sitting in our row. He was obnoxious, overweight, and appeared to be suffering from some kind of mental retardation combined with Turretts - he'd scream things like "dillhole!" or "YOU'RE [insert the last word said on screen here]" and crack himself up.
Unfortunately for me, the Nuart is the closest - and often only - place to see classic favorites on the big screen. Even so, I'm not sure I'm interested anymore. For what you have to put up with now just to watch a movie there, the Nuart gets its ass kicked by DVD and a halfway decent home theater.

The scene of my geeked out Rocky Horror Picture Show phase from sophomore and junior year in High School, I learned more from reading the bathroom walls than from the boyrfriend who I went there with.

Sometimes its nice to go to a theater with charm and "street cred". Street cred meaning even the film nazi's and ex-film-school dorks name drop "The Nuart" to gain their own film buff credibility. Art Institute graduates watch Brothers Quay films here and wax poetic about how Star Wars would have been so much better if Han Solo died. Right.
The Nuart shows films that are important to our society. They show documentaries that add something to your life. They present foreign films that the world is in love with, but America just sleeps on. They have limited engagements with films you won't see anywhere else. It's true you might have some internet connection where you can buy ultra-violent Asian DVDs for your nerdy ass region free DVD player. But come on, pal, you know there ain't nothing like watching a film projected onto a screen with a bunch of other film-freaks who just wanted to watch a damn good movie.
I saw the Piano Tuner of Earthquakes here a few months ago. I didn't love the film at all, but I am so glad that the Nuart gave my arse the CHANCE and the CHOICE to go see it in a theatre setting. I didn't have to go to some obscure website and sacrifice a stolen baby to earn the money it would cost to purchase the limited edition import.
They remodeled it a few months back to give it a few modern touches. Okay, a lot of modern touches. The chairs are super huge and comfy...almost comfy enough to cut a hole in the bottom of popcorn bucket and make out with your date. Just kidding, you wouldn't do that here cuz you're here to see a kick ass film. The concession stand doesn't have the charm of the old Nuart but its still way more personable than your local mega-plex where saying the words "good evening" is a lost art. The actual theatre still seems to be the same --- but the seats make the cinematic experience so much more enjoyable.
The Nuart rocks...plain and simple. Its my art theater of choice. I'll be seeing the Goonies and the cult classic, El Topo, here in March. I'm hoping to be freaked out by Suspiria in April.
And, no...Star Wars is just dandy the way it is...so "laugh it up, fuzzball."
P.S. Did I mention The Rocky Horror Picture Show is holding it down here every Saturday at Midnight? Say Whaaaaaa-? You betta recognize!

I must admit I wasn't too into indie films until I moved to Los Angeles and went to this theatre a few times. Not sure if it's the friend who introduced me to the place (who I had a mild crush on) or the awesome movies I later saw there with friends(Masculine feminine, Harold and Maude) or the not so awesome movies (Brown Bunny!?) but after this my love for movies that weren't so blockbuster or popular flourished. I began to gain an interest in foreign films and rent lesser known films on my own and actually pay attention to directors and producers etc.
This is a lovely little theatre with not only excellent new films playing every week but a midnight film every week as well that is usually just as interesting if not more-so. Seats are comfy, parking is easy to find and there is sometimes interesting eye candy on weekends. Also- directors and actors occasionally make appearances and do Q&A's after films.
A little tidbit; if you've seen the movie "Ed Wood" they do the screening of one of his movies ( it's his first movie if I remember correctly) at A theatre which is actually Nuart. You know, it's that scene where people throw popcorn at the screen because the movie was so god awful and he runs out crying.

It is now March 2008 and I've come back to give these guys five stars (previously it was 4) They managed to remodel the place while it still keeping it's charm and small theatre-like setting. Not only that but I've been attending the midnight movies lately and the owner (or at least the main guy who speaks before every midnight movie) gives away free dvds and meals to cafe fifties before each Friday night screening. I look forward to seeing what they play next (Some Godard please!)

this is one of my favorite theatres (even though i do not go there often because i tend to dislike the west side). this is the type of theatre i want to go... from the marquis to the sticky floor. they screen such a range of films, i am compelled to love it. i mean... let's be reasonable... any place that hosts art, foreign, and midnight movies has got to be amazing. really what it comes down to is... they screened 'el topo!' i love it.
The Nuart Theatre, sadly, but in truth, is my second home. I devote more time to enjoying myself there, thinking about enjoying myself there, and figuring out how to get there to enjoy myself, than I do anywhere else. It takes a lot to extrapolate that amount of energy from me, but where else can you find a theater that caters to the insomniatic audience? Where else on the big screen are there classic (and should be classic) movies, the latest indie flicks, cult films, and even a weekly Saturday night shadowcast of THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW featuring an irreverent Sins o' the Flesh?
They have a wonderful series on Friday nights entitled "Cine Insomnia" that shows the good (Blazing Saddles), the bad (El Topo) and the ugly (films like Pink Flamingo definitely fit this) as an opportunity for those of us non-diurnals that are up and looking for something still open at midnight in Los Angeles.
after months of waiting...i finally got to see the first showing of the Ian Curtis bio-flick, Control this past saturday. this was the only theatre playing it. i haven't been here since seeing blair witch project. the place has this low key vibe that only true fans of lounges and bars can appreciate. since it's location is right off the 405 south fwy...you know the parking sux out right. but once you pay your $7.50 and plant your ass on the cushy seats...it's all good! so if you ever have the pleasure of checking out the cool indie flicks...make the trek, pay the small fee, sit down, then enjoy the show!

A stalwart Los Angeles institution, the Nuart cements its place as a Los Angeles landmark by virtue of its unapologetic repertoire of odd films, its quasi-gritty-yet-strangely endearing location (next to a freeway intersection and its adjacent pedestrian underpass and across a 7-11 where you wouldn't want your kids to jump out of the car alone to get a slurpee) and the unconditional dedication to an avant-garde movement in Los Angeles. It's the anti-AMC-theater, and it carries the art-house flag proudly and forcefully.
I haven't been to the Nuart since its renovation - but even before then the auditorium was something grand - spacious, roomy, with a big screen kept in good shape, and wooden seats that were quite forgiving on the buttocks.
When I saw films there on rainy days with few patrons in the audience, I felt like I was part of a fantasy - I felt like it could have been a scene from the sad, French film I was currently watching.
Never attended the midnight shows of Rocky Horror Picture Show, but I hear they're a riot.

Rocky Horror Pucture Show/ Shadow Cast....
Can you say Fun out loud!!!!!....I was de-virginized this past Saturday night @ midnight... interactive and fun and a slut like me, i was the virgin sacrafice....I highly recommend see this performance the cast is great!
The Nuart is a fantastic place to see foreign, indie and cult classic films. They have just undergone a huge remodel. The seats are MUCH more comfortable, but on the other hand the tiles in the lobby look they came out of a hot tub in the 1970s. Given how much I LOVE independent film though, the seats being comfortable overrides my dislike of the tiles.
They also have indie filmmakers come and speak before and after the films, which is a great bonus. There is a parking lot near by and street parking can easily be found close by, which is a plus. Cafe 50s is just down the street, which makes for a great post-film discussion hang out.
All in all, the Nuart is one of the BEST places in LA to see art house films hands down!

Haven't been since the remodel, but this was my favorite movie theatre in the southland. Great programming for indie and foreign movies. There are often Q&As with directors, actors, etc. after premiers. Richard Linklater did one for "Waking Life" here. When "Metropolis" was re-released in a restored version, they had some 90-year old guy who had worked on it in Germany show up.
Great midnight movies too.

This theater makes you never want to go to a major, mega-corporate movie theater again. I saw "Tideland" here. This is the thing: if I were to see "Finding Nemo" in the same theater, it would have been a different story. But going to see a real long, obscure indie film sits just right. The place just feels alive and really lets you absorb the story.
These guys always have awesome movies playing. I would say the midnight movies are a hidden gem, but they sure get enough people. If you're stuck for something to do after dinner on a Friday, go and you won't be disappointed. They're often able to get guest intros and do giveaways right before each show.
Thee place to see independent/art/reperatory/revival/cult/festival films in LA. Some of the most memorable films I have seen here were The City Of Lost Children, the Leo Theremin documentary, Nico Icon, and most regrettably: KIDS.
I had won tickets through an entertainment calendar about what was billed to me as "Romeo and Juliet for skaters"... so I brought a date. If you haven't seen the movie, let's just say it's a pretty rough around the edges film that "climaxes" with a scene that's just way too uncomfortable for words. My poor date was in tears the rest of the night (maybe a hint about her past?).
But back on topic: The Nuart is a great theater!
i have to review it b/c it's my neighborhood theater, right???
so, it's a good theater. it's a little better now that they've done the renovations. they play some great movies that you don't find elsewhere, and that's why i love it. but, they play some crap, too. do some research on what's out. sometimes they have Q & As with the filmmakers, which is really cool.

Any cinefile within a hundred miles knows about this place so there isn't anything amazing I can say about this place except that really, it lives up to any hype it has earned over the years.
If you are into indie/art house/cult films, this is the place to see them. Do yourself a favor and go. Experience something that makes you feel, and god forbid, think! The selections won't always appeal to everyone, but that's the point. If you want to experience something outside the box, you should start here.
Remodeled, so it is the best indie movie house in town, and L.A. is movietown....
great screen. good selection. check this place out!!
