Only in Theaters (2022)


Only in Theaters 
isn’t a great movie – the director, Raphael Sbarge, makes some very odd decisions vis-à-vis framing devices, and there are too many sequences about how we really, really just all have to be seeing movies in theatres – but the story of the Laemmle family is super interesting, and Greg Laemmle is a very compelling character. I feel great affection for this chain of theatres, and the film made me feel like I know these folks personally.
