The Nuart is already a treasure for the movies they play that the giants will not. But you can read enough about that in other reviews. The Nuart achieves greatness in their midnight movies. Every Saturday at midnight is Rocky Horror, which I've never checked out. But every Friday night is a different movie. Last night it was The Goonies. Never thought I'd see that on the big screen again. And talk about a crowd. It was packed with almost 300 screaming fans. The most fun you'll have at the movies outside of a 12:01 Star Wars showing. The selection widely varies from cult classics to so-bad-it's-funny turkeys like Cool As Ice, to fun classics like The Goonies. Ghostbusters is next week. Be there.
Pros: midnight movies, a true art house, great selection
Cons: no student discount, expensive tickets
