Before Landmark opened its new E St theatre downtown and drove Visions out of business, its Bethesda Row Cinema stood out as one of the best places in DC to see independent films in a "real movie theatre" setting.
What makes this theatre so awesome is that it plays both the big shots in independent flicks and the tiny no-names. And you can sit in the relative comfort of cushy stadium seating to watch them on big screens.
Landmark also gives away remarkable numbers of free passes to its numerous screenings (which usually feature special guests like the actors, writers, or producers of the movies) and also usually has free CDs featuring some of the best music from independent movies from the previous year.
