About the Film

When a spate of mysterious murders sweeps through the Osage Indian nation in Oklahoma in the early 1920’s, the Bureau of Investigation (an early 20th-century precursor to the FBI) sends agents into the frontier to investigate the matter. The murders coincide with the discovery of massive oil deposits on the Osage land, and the murders seem to be tied to the newfound wealth that begins to permeate the once-poverty-stricken tribespeople.

With its perfect genre blend of drama, Western, and crime noir, Martin Scorsese’s KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON is the highly-anticipated adaptation of the critically-acclaimed 2017 non-fiction book of the same name. The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert DeNiro, Jesse Plemmons, and Lily Gladstone.

We have been closed since May to address some structural repairs with our building. The Athena opened in 1915 and these repairs were necessary to keep the theater thriving for years to come.

This will be a partial reopening. We will be showing films in our upstairs theater starting on Jan 5th. The two downstairs theaters will remain closed as work continues in those spaces. Those theaters are anticipated to reopen in a few months.

We are so delighted to bring film back to Court Street! Thank you to our amazing community for your patience and support during the closure.

First up, KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON & ANATOMY OF A FALL. These will be very limited engagements so don’t wait to see them. Buy your tickets now. We only have access to one screen right now, so we are trying to fit as much cinema goodness in as possible. This means films that will have fewer show times. But this schedule will allow us to highlight more of best independent, world and critically acclaimed films coming out in 2023-2024!

See you at the movies!

About the Film

ORIGIN tells the story of American Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Isabel Wilkerson as she sets out, in the grips of personal tragedy, to research and write her critically acclaimed nonfiction book Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents.

Written and directed by Oscar-nominated filmmaker Ava DuVernay (Selma, 13th), the film stars Aujanue Ellis-Taylor as Wilkerson, as well as Jon Bernthal, Vera Farmiga, and Nick Offerman in supporting roles. Origin is not only a deep dive into the life of an exceptional journalist, it also examines the nature and deep roots of racism in America.

About the Film

When her son Mintao begins to exhibit strange behavior, single-mother Saori decides to investigate the matter. This leads her into a confrontation with one of Mintao’s school teachers; however, the truth behind Mintao’s acting-out ends up being more convoluted than Saori could have imagined.

Featuring the final score composed by renown Japanese film composer Ryuichi Sakamoto (who sadly passed away just months before the film’s release, and to whom the film is dedicated), MONSTER is a gripping, poetic, and engaging drama that examines the way “truth” is perceived depending on one’s perspective. The film has been nominated for countless awards, and the script by Japanese playwright Yuji Sakamoto won the award for Best Screenplay at the Cannes Film Festival.
