Town Center lease extended!

January 17, 2024 by Jordan Deglise Moore 1 Comment

Good news on Ventura Boulevard: Laemmle Theatres and our landlord in Encino have agreed to a lease extension for our Town Center theater. We expect to be operating there until at least the end of January 2025 and hope to extend beyond that. Valley cinephiles: If you have been waiting to come back to the venue, now is the time to show support! We will bring the best of world cinema to your neighborhood year round. Come see one, some or all of the films we’re proud to open at the Town Center in just the next few weeks: The brilliant, chilling The Zone of Interest, Mads Mikkelsen’s The Promised Land, Ava Duvernay’s Origin, The Monk and the Gun from Bhutan, a re-release of Amelie, The Taste of Things with Juliette Binoche and Benoît Magimel, and so much more. Happy moviegoing!

🎟️🎟️ A Fond Farewell to the Claremont 5 The Clare 🎟️🎟️
A Fond Farewell to the Claremont 5

The Claremont 5 has been a meaningful part of our company’s history and, more importantly, of a community that showed up again and again for independent, foreign, and specialty films. 

You showed up for small films, challenging films, and films that sparked discussion long after the credits rolled. Together, you made this theater more than a building—You made it a gathering place.

While this chapter is ending, our gratitude endures. So thank you, Claremont, for your curiosity, your loyalty, and for allowing us to be part of your moviegoing lives.
