For those in Southern California, capping off a weekend of moviegoing with a classic cinematic experience just got easier, with the Rialto Theatre‘s announcement of its slate of midnight summer screenings. One of the last remaining single-screen movie palaces in the
Los Angeles area, the beautiful and
historic Rialto is located in the heart of South
Pasadena, and has been operated by Landmark Theatres since 1976. Built in 1925 and sporting a unique blend
of Spanish Baroque and Egyptian stylings, the Rialto
was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. It has been
featured in many films and commercials, most notably Robert Altman’s The Player
and, more recently, Scream 2.

Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window will screen on Saturday, June 2, The Rocky Horror Picture Show will screen the following week, on June 9, and Steven Spielberg’s Jaws will screen on June 16.
