As the Belcourt celebrates its 100th birthday (and our 25th year as a nonprofit) we launch an ongoing project exploring the history of films shot in and around Nashville — and others that tie more broadly to both the Belcourt’s and Nashville’s cinema and cultural history. From studio-backed features to scrappy indie productions, these films capture a city in flux and reflect a legacy that continues to evolve — much of it intersecting with the Belcourt’s own past. This initial series highlights just eight such titles — but it’s only the beginning. In other words, watch this space!

Trudge through the tumultuous trenches of that small, suffocating place between being a kid and an adult. Where like wildflowers – wonder both wakes and wanes in natural wistfulness. Let us take you to that vexing place of forgotten familiarity in which angst broods, lust looms, and rebellion blooms. Welcome to TEENAGE WASTELAND. Please enjoy your stay.
