8 Local Cinemas in Houston
Storytelling is an art. We can be entertained, informed, and moved in minutes with the right story told in a compelling way. Filmmakers love H-town and have been inspired to shoot some of their finest pieces of work here (Boyhood, Rushmore, Tree of Life, Paris, Texas). Movies on the couch are great, but for a true aficionado, there's no better way to enjoy a film than experiencing it with others. Houston is exceptionally lucky to have local theaters and film organizations fostering and inspiring creatives across the city. Catch a short, an indie, a foreign film, or the next blockbuster, all playing near you.
