    From their website:

    Adults $2 - Children and Seniors $1

    Yes, you read that right.  And I saw "The Dark Knight" here last week - and it's still in first run!

    Okay, price point out of the way, now on to the rave.  

    First - this is a real, old, big, one-screen movie theatre from the days when the movies were something special.  The facade is a gorgeous example those days, its geometric, restrained 1930s style a joy to behold.

    Inside, the original light fixtures and fittings remain.  The floor is HARDWOOD PLANKS.  Modern, comfy seats fit perfectly with the style and ambiance, having been chosen with care.  An original dairy wall clock hangs in one of the back exit hallway doors.  Popcorn is on offer in front at the snackbar.  The place is filled with kids and families.  There's even a (very) stern usher, who polices the place for cell phones and contraband!

    The show starts every night at 7:00pm (a sign hanging by the box office window tells you when the show will let out) and my family confirms it is always packed.  Gotta confess I got a bit of a lump in my throat, seeing all those people gathered downtown, hanging out and seeing the show together, having a bit of a real, old-time American home town experience.  This is someplace to go out of your way to experience.  Check out their website.  Check them out on a map.  Is Charles City a road trip destination?  It ought to be.
