“Fifteen-hundred people went into the sea when Titanic sank from under us. There were twenty boats floating nearby and only one came back, one. Six were saved from the water, myself included. Six out of 1,500. Afterward, the 700 people in the boats had nothing to do, but wait, wait to die, wait to live, wait for an absolution that would never come.”

Music Box Theatre screens films of all genres and from every era of cinema, both new releases and repertory. These films may sometimes contain upsetting, outdated, or offensive material. While we aim to introduce many of our screenings, we do not always provide warnings about potentially triggering content within the films we screen. We encourage our patrons to research the film before they attend using trailers, reviews, or content information found on Common Sense Media, IMDb and DoesTheDogDie.com.
