As we conclude a year of programs, seminars and special events dedicated Belcourt 100, our centennial as Nashville’s oldest neighborhood cinema, it seemed appropriate to look back specifically at our last quarter century — a turning point (starting in 2000) when our building was saved, a new 501(c) was formed, and the Belcourt Theatre earned the moniker we hold today as Nashville’s Nonprofit Film Center. To do so, we have gathered this unique collection of films, each its own kind of milestone in our last quarter century and tied to a particular moment.
This series made possible with generous support from the Manzlers and Webbs.
