Midwood, in Brooklyn
Kent Theater
Arthouse Cinema · 1170 Coney Island Ave
A neighborhood movie theater on Coney Island Avenue that has been open since 1939, still running current releases, with all seats at six dollars on Wednesdays.
It plays what is out now rather than working a repertory calendar, which puts family titles, horror and studio dramas on the same marquee across a week. There is a menu as well as a concession counter.
The address is a commercial stretch of Coney Island Avenue in Midwood, a long way from the arthouse cinemas of brownstone Brooklyn. The theater's own framing is historic and local rather than curated, and the pricing follows from that.
