Why 5 stars? How about 8? The Broadway Theater is built on consistency, quality movies and a staff that HOLDS THE CANDLE for friendliness, knowledge of current movies and the best popcorn I have ever tasted. I rarely go to other theaters except to catch a movie that my daughter recommends. You feel like a robot at the Megaplex. Refreshments are gross. Back to the Broadway. Let's not forget the volunteers. Always a warm reception and knowledge and solid opinions on current movies. Buy your ticket on line and stop by the counter as Abby and team ring up the ice-cream sandwich. Free parking!!!!!! See you there read more

Cute theater that is centrally located in downtown. We saw Air, opening day, and it was a great experience. Friendly people and they had an a awesome selection of candy and chocolate- they had literally every type of Ritter Sport Chocolate you could think of! Our theater was a tad on the tiny side with standard seats, nothing fancy. Overall, a nice movie experience. read more

I love this theatre and its awesome employees. Been going here for over 25 years. It's a gem! Count on them to be showing movies you want to see that other theaters usually don't. It's a really cute theater with a great assortment of candies, bottles sodas, and snacks as well. You're not coming here for updated recliner seats... it's about seeing great movies in a theater that has a historic feel. The parking garage adjacent to it is so convenient and the theatre will validate. read more

Broadway Centre Cinemas - Waiting for movie... - Cinema Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

This was my first experience at this theatre and we'll be back! I appreciate that there is a place to see independent films, both new and old. All of the employees I interacted with were friendly and welcoming. The person who introduced the film we saw (Crash) was entertaining. Just wish he had addressed the entire theatre instead of just those seated in the center. A little quibble though. Overall, a great experience. read more

We came here last week to watch a Sundance film, Theater Camp. The employees were all super kind and welcoming. I love the choices of snacks they had, even pizza! The decor inside was so cute, including all the Barbie accessories for the Barbie movie. We parked in the parking garage next door and they validated our parking. The prices of the tickets and food were pretty affordable. The chairs were comfortable, but it is first come first serve so definitely get there a little bit earlier. Will be coming here again! read more

Broadway Centre Cinemas - Cinema Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

We are so lucky here in Utah to have access to great independent films-and you can see many of them here at the Broadway Centre Cinemas. It's a fantastic little theater that has a small/hometown feel...refreshingly different from the big mega theaters that are popping up all over. This theater does offer all the basics that you'd like to enjoy while watching cinema-snack bar, comfortable seating and a large screen with good sound. Note that seating isn't assigned (or it wasn't for the show I went to see) so plan on arriving early to popular showings to get good seats. There is some street parking out front, but the parking garage next store may be a better bet. And I think they validate as well. I'm looking forward to seeing more films here in the future. read more

Loved this place! Great, friendly customer service and very clean building. Comfy chairs as well.

I just can't bring myself to write a bad review of this place, mostly for the fact that they show awesome indie films -- movies you NEED to go see! We travel from out of state to see films here while we are in town since the Broadway shows movies that most theaters outside of L.A. and New York will never get the chance to screen. Yes, this theater is in a very bad state of disrepair. The bathrooms are horrendous with leaking faucets, broken door latches, cracked tile, etc. The theaters themselves are fine but they do lack a good sound system and the theater still hasn't yet converted to digital projection (though they are currently raising funds to do so). The screens are small but adequate. Parking is easy and free in the adjacent parking garage. Take a ticket and be sure to get it validated. I avoid parking in the street since I got a ticket one winter for blocking some sort of zone -- when the sign was covered in snow. Don't chance it and just park in the garage. My biggest complaint is about the new seats. While the old seats weren't that comfy, the new ones are HORRIBLE! They might've looked good on paper but people making interior design decisions really need to sit in the seats before purchasing them! First, the old style floor means there's a very steep incline. When you sit in the new seats, you feel like you are going to be catapulted forward. Want to lean back? You have no choice but to prop your feet up on the seats in front of you -- which means the brand new seating is already dirty and scuffed. The worst thing about the new seats is that the seatbacks are so high, they disrupt the sight lines for the screen and block part of the film (even when they are empty). As a movie lover, this is a serious issue for me. I'm not really sure how this problem can be corrected, but it's very distracting and a real letdown. The snack bar is good but I wish there would be more diet soda options. If you don't like Diet Coke (which I don't), then you are out of luck. I hate being forced to bring my own Coke Zero or Diet Pepsi in with me, but when something's not offered I have to! Another 'complaint' (last one, I promise!) is that now when you go to see a film, you are force-fed commercials. The lights go dim, you get to watch a handful of previews, and then -- BAM -- you are hit with about 4 or 5 commercials! AFTER THE PREVIEWS! WTF? I know this theater must be struggling and I know it's run by the film society, but come on! Don't hold me captive and shove irrelevant commercials down my throat. It leaves a very, VERY bad taste in my mouth. Maybe if all audiences just start booing when the commercials come on, management will take a hint? Okay, no more fussies about this place. I honestly do LOVE the theater. If you love movies like I do, please go and support this place. Go see an indie, go expand your horizons. And for the love of God, do NOT talk during the movie (I'm talking to you, old farts in the back row yapping about every last damn thing in the movie I saw last night). read more

This place has always been pretty awesome, but now that the lobby has been remodeled, it's even better! I love that they offer a huge variety of chocolates and goodies. Where else can you get not only popcorn, but also a burrito, Pie Hole pizza, edamame and an Americano? It's definitely the theater to visit if you're wanting to see an independent or limited release film. Don't go there expecting to see the latest action flick or crappy thriller. Do expect to see quality shows that are thought provoking and heart warming. Films that I've seen this year: The Grand Budapest Hotel, Boyhood, What If, and The Theory of Everything. read more

Broadway Centre Cinemas - Americano - Cinema Near Me - Salt Lake City, Utah

I came here back in 2011 when I was interviewing for the school I'm currently attending. I remember lovinggggg it and thinking to myself how awesome it is that there's a theater with only indy films! Now that I'm thinking back and am more familiar with what Utah has to offer, I realize that this place is still pretty awesome, but not exactly 5 star awesome...and here's why: +1 Star: Big location with a lot of independent movies +1 Star: Reasonable prices for movie tickets (~$7?) +1 Star: Spacious seats without a huge crowd of people inside +1 Star: Workers have always been courteous to me -1 Star: It seems a bit old in my opinion though well-kept, which is why I am gonna be stingy with this 4 star rating. read more

Yes, yes, yes. Now let's elaborate. The First Yes: Yes to independent cinema. Not movies. I said, cinema, dudes. So don't show up here all geeked out to go see your favorite superhero movie. Save that for the massive stadium theaters. Yes to small documentaries, yes to foreign films. yes to TWO of the films playing there when I visited tonight being featured on NPR in the last week. Sure, that can sometimes feel uppity. But you can totally spend next weekend in line for the new Rom Com where that one guy and that one girl start out hating each other and then fall in love. You know the one. The Second Yes: Snack bar, people. It ain't just popcorn and candy bars. Sure, they have sodas and some of the junky stuff. But also tea. And edamame. Yup. The Third yes: For ambiance. Sure the seats are uncomfortable, but they're in the middle of a big campaign to upgrade the seats to something more chiropractically sound. It's dim. It's a litlte old school. But it's got soul and it's full of interesting people. Park in the metered parking outside (free after 6pm) or in the garage adjacent (probably runs you $4-6 depending on the length of the movie. That's not my favorite part, but you could also opt to take Trax and hoof it. Superb dining abounds on 300 S. Bring your friends. Take your out of town buds when they come in. Cinema! QUICK UPDATE: Hang W just reminded me that they do validate if you park in that garage, good for up to two hours. Which I knew. And then forgot. And now remember again. Now you have no excuse to not visit Broadway Centre ever. Except Jerry Bruckheimer or Michael Bay. read more

I actually ended up here twice without having known that I was here, twice! Broadway Centre Cinemas also happens to be in the same building as the Copper Onion and it's a great way to catch dinner and a movie, literally right next door. I am a bit unfamiliar with these types of theaters, but felt like it was very clean, organized and great for Sundance films. The theater quality was good, sound was on par and it's a great time to be had since most of the staff were very friendly in guiding you to different areas of the theater and making sure you were ok during the film. The concessions were not as overpriced as they would be in a big chain theater, which was nice and restrooms are easy to find and clean / well kept. I can't speak for the price of the tickets since I went during Sundance but I imagine they're probably a little cheaper than the big chain theaters as well. Overall great experience. read more

The Broadway is the second oldest theatre house in Salt Lake, with the first being heir sister theatre The Tower. Both are run by the Salt Lake Film Society, and both give you something that the other theatre chains in town can't: an experience. Broadway shows indie, art-house, foreign, and limited release films in newly converted to digital format, and with exceptionally comfy new chairs. They've also just redone their entire foyer, snack stand, and their carpet is personalised. This theatre house has heart and soul, and I can't say that I have seen a movie here in the last year that hasn't resulted in some shedding of tears - be they happy or sad - which I know I can't attest to from the Miller and Cinemark competition. Also, you can park in the parking structure right next to the theatre and receive a validation with your movie purchase, which is the greatest downtown draw in the land - aside from the films of course ;) So please, support local, and please support the little guys of cinema. Thank you Broadway, you are truly an amazing part of our city. read more

It is not the shiniest looking movie theater in Utah, but it sure has the most eclectic taste. Broadway along with the Tower Theatre in the 9th and 9th neighborhood are the only two real indie cinemas in SLC. If you are looking for a limited release film, either Broadway is showing it or you will need to wait for the DVD. The facilities are a little weathered, but very much operational. Caught the new Danny Boyle film, "127 Hours" here and see that the theater has not changed much from my college days. I do see the concession options have gotten a bit better though. Pricing is pretty good. $6 for matinee shows before 6 pm is a steal. Quality cheap entertainment. And there is free validated parking to boot. If you like watching Sundance film fare, go to Broadway as that is one of the few indie film outlets year-round in SLC. read more

My favorite place to see movies! It might not be the most luxurious, but it is an amazing place to see the best indie films in all of the land. The staff is amazing and so fun to run into. Fabulous place to be! Make sure to get your parking validated! read more

Saw 'The Farewell' a few days ago and glad I did. The movie and the theater was great. It's clean, nice atmosphere and very friendly attendants working there. Plus, the popcorn is super tasty and they have all kinds of new fusion snacks and originals that we all love. It's run by the Salt Lake Film Society and they show all types of foreign/indie films. Can't wait to watch another movie there. read more

I don't know why other movie theaters don't serve edamame, jasmine tea and pizza from the pie at their snack bars. Doesn't everyone expect that when they to the movies? No? It's just me? Ok then...moving along. This theater is smallish and a bit dated but none of that matters because they show films you can't see anywhere else. It's a great time. And the snack bar is awesome, of course. Offering 10 different teas and snacks like edamame would keep me coming back alone, but it's really the merits of the films they choose to screen here. Great for a date night, if you're alone and bored, an outing for friends...really any time. Their website has helpful info with show times and other FAQ. read more

You can always count on the Broadway for the best movie show selection downtown. Foreign, docs, and just the best film society stuff around. There's a hang-out area to wait for your friends, very nice staff (they know their films too) and fun film events. Home of the SL Film Society. Decent snack food (including pizza from the Pie, chunky cookys and good euro chocolate). Parking is free in the parking garage to the east of the theatre (take the validation ticket in and stamp it yourself at the refreshment counter), although free street parking is often available after work. Listen for the cellist that often plays outside the door. read more

Stopped by here for the Sundance shorts program. I probably would have handed them 5 stars if one of the ushers didn't shrug off my wife's request for directions to an ATM. The event was handled extremely well otherwise. The concession looked far superior to the normal fare at AMCs etc. The seats were super comfortable and the whole theatre seemed really clean. I think they normally validate the parking nearby, but the Sundance folks said they couldn't oblige. I would definitely come back here again even after Sundance goes. read more

Broadway Centre Cinemas is amazing. They have all of those movies that you wish you could see, maybe you saw a preview online or something, or heard about it at Sundance, or what ever else, that no one else in Utah screens. Their prices are about the same as other theaters, $9.25 after 6, $6.75 for shows starting before 6. So far we've got a basic theater that shows good movies you can't see anywhere else. What makes it even better is that they offer excellent snacks. Pizza from Pie Hole, good popcorn, great international candy selection and more that I just can't remember right now. It's a step up above your traditional chain theater though. What takes it to amazing are the free events they hold for the community. We went as the whole family to see Muppet Christmas Carol, a family favorite. Seeing Muppet Christmas Carol on the big screen is something that you just can't do anywhere else. Of course Santa decided he had to run through the theater and make a bunch of noise in the middle of the movie, which while annoying is acceptable for a family event. Oh, and did I mention they also provided FREE waffles?? Not just your basic waffles and corn syrup "maple syrup", but genuinely good waffles with a fantastic selection of peanut butter, nutella, and more! Overall this is a great theater that any fan of film should check out. It's a great place in the community and is well worth your time and money. read more

I just wanted to buy a friggen movie ticket on an idle Sunday afternoon. Dodging online sales pitches was not in my plans. I just wanted to buy a friggen movie ticket to some film about Winston Churchill. Hoping to get an assigned seat, I soon realized that isn't offered by the Broadway Theaters. Trust me, everyone in that theater will wish I had a aisle seat. I'm over 60 and a dude. I can't go 20 minutes without peeing, let alone two hours. The theater website tried to sell me a membership. They tried to squeeze a donation out of me. All I wanted was a friggen movie ticket! It was like navigating a mine field in Bosnia! All I wanted was a friggen movie ticket! Finally, I was able to purchase and print a friggen movie ticket. Of course, the printed ticket was the size of an extra large pizza, and had more ads than a South Dakota highway. The folks working at the Broadway theatre went to the East German School for personality and warmth. My seat in the theater was covered with dog hair. DOG HAIR? What, this movie theater caters to the blind? DOG HAIR? Explain that. Well, the theatre did smell like a kennel. The screen had two obtrusive lines cutting through it. Were they repaired rips, or was this an attempt at an artistic triptych. I realize The Broadway Theater is Salt Lake's version of an art house. But does it have to strive for such authenticity that nothing seems to have changed or cleaned since 1959? Why is this theater considered hip? I need to be enlightened. read more

I had been looking for Juliet, Naked...and this place was playing it. it was really helpful that AFTER Purchasing the ticket that the usher stamped the ticket so that the parking garage fee would be waived. theres a decent selection for food and beverages and even the ticket price is good. read more

I always try to squeeze in a movie when I'm passing through Salt Lake. There's usually something good to see. Great seats and screens!

I love this theatre. I love the movies they bring in, the staff is usually very friendly. (Although sometimes the person in the ticket booth is not.) I love the popcorn, the random selection of drinks, the awesome hand dryer in the bathroom. This is a great theatre and I hope it always remains that way! read more

The Broadway Centre Cinemas is a theatre owned by the Salt Lake Film Society. It shows mostly independent movies and is the antithesis of the big movie theatre chains. I enjoy seeing movies here because everything feels super independent. From the ticket stand to the concession stand, the staff is nice and knowledgeable. My only complaint is the parking garage can be quite busy after a movie is done and everyone is trying to get out. They only have one person at the gate and it can take you about 30 minutes just to get out of the garage. Make sure to bring your parking ticket in with you to the theatre so they can validate it. read more

i cant tell you how happy i am that SLC has the salt lake film society. i have not been to the tower theatre (yet) but i have been to Broadway more than a few times now & it's my favorite theatre! no, there are no superhero flicks or reclining chairs or slurpees, so if you enjoy those things then this place isn't going to be for you, but if you enjoy a unique, quirky theatre, unusual toppings to your popcorn & a great lineup of independent films, then welcome home! honestly, a year ago i didn't even know this place or the film society even existed. the first time i came here was august 2018 to see bo burnham's film "eighth grade" which i was DYING to see but was literally playing nowhere else. i was sold on my first visit. i love the downtown location, the small space, the concession stand, the audience, just everything about it. who doesn't love a place that has chili flakes for your popcorn?!? obviously the films are the best part. last night we saw "trial by fire" but I've been able to see titles like "the miseducation of cameron post", "skate kitchen", "lizzie", & "ben is back". they completely shy away from mainstream titles, show all the new A24 films, & support LGBT cinema. this place is truly a gem in SLC, and if you're ever in the mood for something new, you should come here. it's a great place to come on sundays after brunch, or saturday nights after you've hit the bars. trust me, you won't regret your visit! read more

Despite the tacky bathrooms, the sometimes inconvenient parking, and the not very comfortable chairs, I absolutely love Broadway. First off, their selection of movies is superb. Most of their films are handpicked by the Salt Lake Film Society, so you'll get great indie stuff and stuff that was probably featured in the Sundance Film Festival. Except instead of journeying a long distance to Park City in the middle of winter, battling out crowds of people and the occasional celebrity, you can go to Broadway at your own convenience, WIN. Second of all, the location is wonderful. I live on the west side, but my life is basically on the east side, which means that it's a wonderful compromise location to meet up with friends and odds are, there will always be a movie showing that not all of us have seen. I mean, how many times have you tried to watch a movie with friends in the midst of your uber busy schedule only to find out that half of your friends saw said movie opening weekend, it gets old. Third, and this is kind of a side note. But the cello player that occasionally plays outside (Eli?) just makes the whole movie night experience that much more special when you're having a night on the town. I find him charming and a really nice person. Anyways, if you're looking for a place to catch a movie and you happen to be in the downtown area, try giving Broadway a try! read more

Yes, the theater is a little rundown, but that is a part of it's charm. This isn't a corporate theater that plays huge box office films, it's a little independent cinema theater. It's clean, quirky and has a great offering of theater snacks. No where else in town can you snack on Kinder Eggs and take out from The Copper Onion while you watch a foreign film. Love this place! Also Elle, the violinist that plays outside is a treat to hear. read more

I would chose to see a film here any day! I know many people hate this place due to it not being shiny and new, but that is exactly why I love it. The Broadway is part of the nonprofit SLC film festival and when attending a movie I prefer to support local. I admit that the chairs are not super comfortable especially when you are a giant, but it's whatever. I am a huge independent film fan and the Broadway offers all the hot indie/alternative films. I love the selection of snacks and beverages. You can enjoy European chocolate, Pie Pizzeria pizza, coffee, Rico brand Mexican food plus the usual movie treats. This theater is not for everyone, but it is an important part of the SLC community. If you can look past the rundown appearance you will see the magic. When I am having a rough day this place give me comfort and peace. read more

Not a pleasant experience... Wow, no lines for a Sundance film?! Walks into theater... ah crap, second row (our fault for not getting there sooner). Actually I've been in worse, the small screen was set back a little so my neck didn't hurt as bad. Why do they even make seats that close?! But it just gets worse from here. A friend and I go out to the lobby for snacks and the following occurs. The story of 3 pretzels & a coke My friend goes off to use the washroom and I wait in line. All of a sudden I feel this breathing on my neck and the smell of halls. I turn to see this guy standing WAY to close to me. He starts grumbling about the slow line under his breath. Happy to get away from this guy only to helped by the dumbest staff ever. Me: Hi, I would like 2 pretzels & a coke Order taker: We don't have pretzels. Oh, wait yes we do. They have to be made do you mind waiting? Me: Not at all I have some time before the film. OT: Ok, they will be right up. She stares at me with a strange look like I'm supposed to move then I'm guessing she realizes that she has to go make them and then does so. I stand there and watch as three employees (ranging in age 18-45) discuss how to actually make the pretzels. In the mean time my friend comes back and decides to order a pretzel as well. I goes use the washroom thinking that this might take awhile (the pretzels that is). I come back to this... Me: Hi, how we doing on those pretzels? OT: Sorry, what? Oh, yeah here you go (hands me one pretzel). Me: I ordered two. OT: Oh, uh My friend: I ordered one as well OT#2: Yeah I'm working on it. OT#3: Yeah I'm working on it too. Me: Here giving my friend my first pretzel in front of all the order takers. OT: Ok, here you go. Me: Ok, how about the other one?! OT: I thought I gave you one. Me: You just saw me hand it to the other person who ordered a pretzel. I'm going to go drop this off and will be back for my pretzel. OT: ok I go and drop off the pretzel explaining that this vacation is really just a trial of my patience. Me: Hi, how we doing on my last pretzel?! OT#2: I have right here. OT: Here you go, handing me a pepperoni pizza. Me: I ordered a pretzel, I was just here a minute ago waiting for my second pretzel. OT#4 Sorry here you go Me: thanks I go back to my seat and take a bite half of it is still cold. I almost start to cry. The group forces me to take it back not realizing what I've just gone through. Me: It's cold OT#1, 2, 3, 4: Really?! Me: (blank look of defeat) OT#5: I'm sorry we will bring it to you. Me: Yeah sure. Not really expecting that to happen. Finally I received it, NOT worth it. Then it gets worse. Before the start of the film the Sundance lady told all of us that she would keep our cell phones if she saw them (really lady!?!? I'd like to see you try!). Then she introduced the director, it was the guy who INVADED of my space in line. Oh great... The film was so freaking weird and wasn't worth the ticket. Just when you thought it would go somewhere it didn't. Bad film, bad seat, and terrible staff, I don't even know what to say... it was a clean theater or not ALL of the staff were idiots, at least the seats were comfy. read more

Enjoying my first Sundance Film Festival private screening of "Minding the Gap". The theater itself is adorable and quant, they offer convenient parking and have a selection of drinks and snack at the concession stand. I definitely recommend coming here all the employees I've interacted w/ thus far have been exceptional and courteous. read more

I just love this theater. So grateful to live in a city that promotes art and indie cinema. Tickets are a much more reasonable price than you would pay at chain theaters. Just a ton of good vibes in this theater and their concessions has a lot of unique items that enhance your viewing experience. It's always clean and everyone who works here is so friendly. read more

After an unscheduled reroute of my jog down 300 South one evening I found this little gem of a theater in SLC. You don't have to wait till Sundance to see IFC quality films in Salt Lake. You just won't be watching those films in style, the theater is as off beat as the movies that you'll watch in it. The theater is tucked in just off of Broadway in the office complex at the intersection of State and 300 South. Things such as stadium seating, high back chairs, and DLP projectors have passed this theater by. As long as you understand this you won't be disappointed. The theater is run by the Salt Lake Film Society, so the work that they do to bring SLC great independent films is very admirable. While the theater is older, its only 1990's old. We aren't talking about your grandfather's theater so don't get too worried if you're reading this before going. They have a great snack bar with a lot of fun choices other than popcorn and Coke. I believe they have free refills on most or all of the popcorn and soda. The tickets are 8.50 for those of us who don't qualify for matinée or student discounts. They take credit cards at the box office and the snack counter. It looks like they have a film society membership that gets you discounts and a limited number of free tickets. Seems like it would be a good deal if you see a lot of the indie movies. I recommend seeing a movie here. Its a very un-SLC type of place. I think everyone should go here even though Larry H Miller doesn't own it and there aren't undertones of religion in the pre-previews like some movie theaters in the Salty City. read more

This is the best theater in Salt Lake City. If it weren't for Broadway and the Salt Lake Film Society, folks in SLC wouldn't have a place to see great independent and art-house cinema. Broadway is a vital part of our community, and a great local business with friendly ownership and staff. They treat their customers well, and the theater is all one could hope for. They also are very supportive of sundance, and help it to have a Salt Lake presence. Not to mention, the play the best films. read more

Great seats that recline back, big and spacious. The seats are a bit high so it's hard to see the screen if your short. Theater is the cleanest theater I have seen. Your feet dont stick to the ground. Parking is great next door in the parking structure and you get validated for 3 hours. The only thing I dont like is that you have to wait outside to by your movie tickets and when it's cold and lines are long, it's annoying. Also on Tuesdays where all the theaters offer matinee rates all day, Broadway is full price. read more

I must say I was pleasantly surprised. Two nights ago was my first time to the Broadway. They were doing a prescreening of Austenland including a Q&A after with the author and director. I was running late and hadn't had a chance to eat dinner but was assured that the theater had the normal food offerings. I parked in the parking structure because I was told that we the theater validated then went in. The concession options were great. The normal popcorn, nachos, and candy were available as well as edamame, hot dogs, coffees, teas, specialty chocolates (hello kinder!) and pretzels. I got a hot dog, bag of chips and a drink which came out to just under $10. Not bad for a movie theater. The hot dog was good, better than expected or any fast food hot dog. The theater itself was great! The seats were new and very comfortable. The view was great no matter where you sat. The aisle and hallways were clean and not sticky. One of my biggest pet peeves in theaters in when the sounds is so loud that it's distracting. That was not a problem here. In fact my only complaint was that it was little warm. The screening itself was free but from what I could tell the prices were comparable to those of any other theater including matinee prices and they show mostly independent and small budget films that you can't see other places. I can see myself frequenting this establishment regularly. One thing to be aware of is that the validation for parking is only for 3 hours. Which sounds like pleanty until you add in a Q&A portion, a book signing, and a 30 minute wait just to get out of the parking structure. read more

She looked longingly at her movie date, impressed with his impeccable taste in film and his choice to bring her to the hippest theater in town. Now she wondered, could a boy so tragically hip possibly feel the same way about her? His horn-rimmed glasses and perfectly disheveled hair were a dead giveaway to the tortured artist behind them. He knew from the moment they met that they had something special--he wouldn't bring just any girl to see a foreign film or an indie flick. No, this was different. He needed to impress. The Broadway was a straight shot to any girl's heart-- at least any girl that had good taste. And good taste was really all that mattered to a boy like him. She seemed impressed as he ordered them each a chai soy latte at the snack bar, along with an imported chocolate bar, and they were in their seats. What happened next was purely cinematic. Was it luck or was it destiny? Neither. It was The Broadway. read more
