Built in 1933, the Coolidge is a movie palace (not a multi-plex) and it usually features independent and foreign films as well as an eclectic variety of festivals. As Boston's only non-profit first-run arthouse theater, it's no surprise that movies from the Republic of China Film Festival, Boston Jewish flicks, Cartoon Madness and Sci-Fi Marathons have all graced the curtain-adorned screen. A must see is the annual “You Oughta Be in Pictures” screening, a night dedicated to locally-made porn (all copies of the film are destroyed after the viewing, so that voyeuristic politician in you can fear not). As a testament to the Coolidge's popularity, patrons raised $750,000 to save the theater from closing a few years ago. Admission $9, children and senior citizens $6, members $6. Bargain matinee screenings $7.

Join in the family fun on Saturday mornings at 10:30am. The theater now hosts children's entertainers, magicians, cartoons, and movies. Some puppet performances are staged in conjunction with the Puppet Showplace Theater.
