    Redcat night scene
    Gary I.

    Two physically very close entities actually facing each other on 1st Street, Disney Concert Hall & Redcat on one side, and Ahmanson & Mark Taper, seem to have strategies of having one of the venues be more "conservative, establishment" and the other to be more "experimental & avant-garde". Redcat in the same site as the Disney Concert Hall is the smaller more intimate venue that houses musical & theatrical forms from around the world, while Disney Concert Hall houses the L.A. Philharmonic that is run by board of directors which hints of a more Western traditonalist approach although I did have the chance to sit near Frank Gehry, the primary architect of the hall, to listen to a Classical Japanese Gagaku Concert. Redcat (Roy & Edna Disney/CalArts Theatre) is a far smaller space than the Disney Concert Hall, but I like the way the seats were located at a steeper pitch so that even a person sporting a Madge Simpson Beehive hairdo would not be able to block the view of the stage of the person sitting in back. Calarts is the entity directly running Redcat. CalArts is in Valencia/Santa Clarita, and is an art institute which educates in undergraduate & graduate programs in the fields of Art, Critical Studies, Dance, Film/Video, Music, & Theatre. Many of the performances at Redcat are by the students of CarArts demonstrating the leading edge & avant-garde but other programs are from other parts of the country if not the world. A few years back, there was a beautiful Gamelan Kebyar, Balinese percussion concert with associated elegant, ethereal dancers. Bali is unique in the island archipelago nation of Indonesia in that it is the only island left that still retains East Indian traditions such as the Hindu religion, dance, customs, & rites surrounded by a sea of Islam. The Balinese take art a notch or two above most other cultures by incorporating art into their everyday lives on a scale we as Americans can barely imagine. Anton, Neko, Kuri: November 21-24, 2013 This time around a Japanese Contemporary dance/theatrical group, Fai Fai, as part of the Sharon Lund Dance Series. The "story" centers around a Nora Neko (stray cat) that has leukemia. The neighborhood is somewhere in a quiet, forgotten part of Tokyo full of mostly kindly but eccentric folk like in any other community throughout the world. The neighbors, who are usually too busy or alienated to interact, find the opportunity to connect with each other because they are either fond of the cat or are afraid of them. The actions & vocalizations are part pathos, comical, surreal, mime, modern geometric style dance, playing with words, expressions of emotion with body language, etc. At least, to me, it shows how disconnected we are living in modern, metropolitan megalopolis where we are so bombarded by all the rigors of big city life and have reached sensory overload that we can find connection with each other only through the catalyst of the concern for the friendly, dying cat. In many ways Anton, Neko, Kuri is merely a slice of life. It depicts everyday occurrences in any city around the world, but this theatre piece is interesting because of its universality as well as the physical performance of the actors themselves. I found Neji to have a very unusual body dance technique in being able to articulate his joints into such improbable angles especially with his legs & feet. I found out later that he was well versed in Buto- (post WII avant-garde dance usually wearing white make-up & slow deliberate, difficult movements). Ko-ji was quite entertaining doing his "Pasta, Pasta" scene, and later it was revealed that he had worked in a restaurant for a number of years. Anton, Neko, Kuri was good entertainment for only $20. This is a deal compared to getting "canned" entertainment at the Arclight in Hollywood for $14 and leaving unsatisfied since many Hollywood movies now can be so vacuous. PS There is a cool, full service bar at Redcat where you can hang out before & after performances. Great way to discuss what was experienced or catching up on news from friends who attended. The Leffe Ale from Belgium was particularly good with hints of orange peel, sweet spices such as cinnamon, allspice in a golden brew filled with flecks of white yeast to give a slightly meaty texture.

    I might be a little biased, but I LOVE this place. Nice intimate theatre, a lounge with beer wine and spirit, an art gallery- what more can you ask for?! Parking is easy, a nice secure structure (Walt Disney Concert Hall), $9 during an event. The entrance is a little tricky to find if you're not familiar: it's off of the parking level P3--or off 2nd St if you're hoofin' it. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Tickets are generally between $20-$30, but they have decent student discounts (especially if you are a CalArts student). They showcase all different disciplines: dance, theatre, music and multimedia. Plus they encourage discussions after the show in the lounge (open late after an event). Any enquiries can be directed to info.redcat@calarts.edu

    Warm and cozy. Not nearly as stuffy as Disney Hall. Cal Arts students have it as a handy performance space. They also let other talented Los Angeles-based artists in now and then, too. I've also seen good and bad stuff here myself. From the theater and dance students who paid $150, 000 for an education at Cal Arts, only to go here and dry hump a wall, and cuss and it's a "performance piece", to the wonderful Arias with a Twist and the mind blowing Tongues Bloody Tongues by LA locals Killsonic. Love it. I love the cute bar (cheap Japanese beers), and the books for sale. Pick yourself up the Margaret Kilgalen book! Not necessarily kid friendly, make sure to read up on what you are going to watch before you have the kiddies in tow.

    Many years ago, when I was a Fellow at AFI, the Vista graciously granted permission for me to film…read morea period piece inside and outside the theater. Happy to say, virtually nothing of the classic "Egyptian themed" decor has changed. Karloff's mummy would feel right at home. Tarantino is definitely the right guy to have purchased it. Among other pluses, there's a handprint and signature gallery outside, obviously referencing The Chinese, but with a much hipper roster of honorees. Then, there's the stated mission of screening only film prints. Caught the "Kill Bill Saga" in 70mm and, a few weeks later, the return engagement of P.T. Anderson's "One Battle After Another", this time also in 70. It had originally shown there in Vistavision, the format in which it was shot. Anyway, I live in Atwater Village, so it's just a few minutes away. I plan to return often.

    You're sitting in history when you're here!…read more THEATER: Here's a fun fact from the Vista wiki- it was designed by architect Lewis A. Smith, and presents a hybrid of two different styles: the exterior is Spanish Mission Revival style, and the interior is Egyptian Revival style- which reminds me a lot of another Hollywood theater- the Egyptian. I went to see Kill Bill: the Whole Bloody Affair. Unless you have "parking powers" activated, add a half hour onto your commute time to arrive and find neighborhood parking somewhere within a mile of this theater. I found a spot in a nearby neighborhood by a school. Back to the movie KB:tWBA-- I hadn't seen Killing William since its initial theatrical run, so it felt pretty new to me. THE MOVIEGOING EXPERIENCE: This movie still hits hard in a packed theater. Lots of reactions and laughs and groans, etc. I was probably laughing the hardest at how much FEET were in this movie. The seats were comfortable and that's judged by my shifting around only two times that I can recall. Thankfully this movie had an intermission to stretch during its 4+ hour runtime. I went during this exclusive December engagement and there's a lot of memorabilia on display in the lobby. There's a lot of snack and food and drink options, and it's pretty reasonably priced. Also, bring your own snacks! No one is checking bags and pockets here and the world is getting pretty expensive. The Vista is in a hip part of town and there's a lot of great eats and drinks in walking distance. We dined at Fred 62 after!

Sounds amazing... until you show up and it's already full... which was what happened. Our movie started at 6:00 PM, we arrived around 5:20 PM, and the garage was completely closed off -- they weren't letting anyone else in. Luckily, we found parking about 3 minutes away and paid around $5, which honestly wasn't too bad. We came here for the second part of our Valentine's date night and watched Wuthering Heights because hello... Margot Robbie is my favorite girl. I haven't been here in over 15 years and WOW -- I forgot how absolutely beautiful this theater is inside. The lobby is spacious, classy, and honestly feels kind of luxurious. There are pool tables, a full bar area downstairs, and spaces where you can hang out with drinks and good company before your movie. We headed straight into our theater and ordered food from our seats (also... water is complimentary, love that). We were seated in our own little pod -- super intimate with two seats, cozy setup, and yes... a blanket. It truly felt like rich people movie night. Shoutout to our server Jake, who was outstanding from start to finish. Great service, super attentive, and made the experience even better. Food-wise: The Boss Burger ($20.5) was a solid 8.5/10 -- hubby really enjoyed it. Although, there were no pickles or tomatoes in there even though it was in their menu. I ordered the Chicken Caesar Wrap ($17), and I'll be honest... it was the only downside of the night. It was a bit cold and tough, and the tortilla-to-filling ratio was a little off for me. I'd give it a 6/10. If the tortilla was a bit warmer I'd think it'll be able to hold onto the filling a bit better, but that was meh, for me. BUT the fries? Piping hot, crispy, and delicious. And Jake even brought us ranch, BBQ sauce, and extra ketchup without us having to ask twice. Overall, this was my husband's first time here, and it definitely won't be our last. We had such a great experience -- the ambience, service, and overall vibe were top-tier. Can't wait for our next cozy movie night here!

I called the theater nonstop that same night and nobody answered. The very next morning, I was the first person to walk into the theater when they opened... and surprise, the ring was gone. LOL. Really disappointing experience, especially considering how expensive and "luxury" this theater tries to present itself as. I expected much better customer service and honesty.

Getting to the theater can be a little confusing, but they do send you instructions before your visit. BE AWARE their email says parking is right across the valet for about $10-$12. Since it was dark, I mistakenly parked at the lot next to the $10 one, and that one was $20 (ouch). Don't make that mistake. When you walk through the valet, there is someone there to tell you where to wait. The doors open about a half hour before your showing. We were a little confused because we weren't sure if someone was going to come down and get us. There was a resident that scanned us up the elevator, and there were plenty of spots to lounge outside of the cinema area. We sat in front of the concession stands, and the valet from downstairs had come up and ask us and the other two couples waiting to move to the seating area closest to the elevators. It wasn't a big deal but I thought it was weird that we had to do that. Our tickets were for the loveseat, which comes with one popcorn per person. We watched LaLa Land (in LaLa Land), which was nice because there's also a view of the buildings in downtown. Seat was comfy, but I wish there were either cup holders on the chairs or perhaps a small table in between seats for your food & drinks. I HIGHLY recommend bringing a blanket. There are other reviews that mention they have heaters, however, this was not the case during our visit. I'm thinking they probably have them for the winter, but there were no heaters present during our visit. It gets rather cold, but it feels okay if you bring a sweater and a small blanket. I loved the concept of the headphones for the movie. They were excellent quality and had great sound. You can adjust it based on your liking. Also, all the seats have a great view of the screen. It's a pricey date, but it's worth it if you're looking for something different.

We went to see a movie on opening weekend, I was surprised that the movie was all the way up on the 3rd floor. That's inconvenient if you want to go buy more concessions or get refills because the only concession stand open is located on the first floor. It takes a lot of time to go down 3 floors then stand in line, so keep that in mind if you're in the 3rd floor. On the way up to the 3rd floor there were some kids playing in the elevator, no parents in site and not employees there to stop them from riding the rails.

Everything is always so well organized and it's just the cutest theater. Now the only negative for me is finding parking, but that's always an issue in this busy area of Los Feliz. My usual routine is to check for street parking, then check the tiny lot behind the theater, then I usually end up at the $8 church lot. The flip side positive of this is there are so many food and dessert places around for pre or post-show eats. I like that this theater is a bit more cozy than other locations, but honestly it's a normal size when thinking of it as a straight movie theater. I most recently saw Come See Me in The Good Light (an amazing documentary that will shift your perspective on death & grief) with a spirited Q&A with the producers Tig Notaro, Jessica Hargrave & Ryan White centering around poet Andrea Gibbons. Go watch it on AppleTV! Now I say this to emphasize that there wasn't a bad seat in the house. The movie and the Q&A after had good views & good vibes. The seats at Los Feliz Theater are wide and comfortable faux leather. This was the first time at a smaller non-chain theater I wasn't constantly shifting in my seat, as the seats were just plain comfy here though they don't recline or anything fancy like that. Concessions aren't overpriced, with many thinking the popcorn here is above average. And just $5 for a LARGE! Clean bathrooms. Friendly staff! I really like coming to Los Feliz's Vintage Cinemas and I'll be back for sure.

    The theater itself is above average -- 6/10. The food and alcohol menu gets the same rating, 6/10…read more But what makes this place EXCELLENT is the outstanding customer service. David the concierge is 11/10 -- and I'm not exaggerating. The manager is a solid 9/10. Long story short: we didn't purchase our tickets online and tried buying them in person, but the kiosk showed only one ticket left. Instead of simply saying "sorry, we're full," they went the extra mile. After the movie started at 7 PM, they checked again around 7:15 for any no-shows. There were seats available, so they sold us the tickets and got us in. That level of follow-up and effort is rare these days. If you still believe in going to the movies, don't waste your time anywhere else. Alamo Drafthouse Cinema Downtown Los Angeles is the place to go.

    @drafthousela we went today and I was so disappointed how this movie theater has changed. For what…read moreso yall can have more profit and less people to pay. The food was horrible, the QR code is terrible the hospitality is terrible. I'm from Texas and after Alamo was bought by another corporation I knew it would change but not this bad. Fix this theater. LA barely has any good theaters and it's sad how this one is going downhill. I don't blame the workers I blame upper management. Bring me back the old school Alamo drafthouse. @drafthouse I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED. On top of barely getting a real meal the price was 80 bucks! We didn't even get beers.
