One of the best of top quality Art film theaters and film culture centers (renowned for various film festivals, including the world famous Mill Valley Film Festival - now 40 years old), as well as Educational opportunities for youth in various aspects of film making. First release Feature films; and International, documentary, and quality independent films shown in a beautifully remodeled art deco theatre. Q&As with filmmakers, actors, musicians, creative celebrities from around the world. Bravo to the Smith Rafael Film Center staff and volunteers!

It is one of - if not the best - movie house in the Bay Area. Why? Because of the broad range of movies and documentaries shown, including superb animation. Ive been educated viewing political documentaries, nature films (Symphony of the Soil was short of amazing and still relevant today), artsy films I consider way out there, and main stream. Of course, foreign films. I cant say enough good things about this theater. Also, dont miss the beautiful art (deco?) designs in the theater-on the walls of three women and elk or bucks. Very cool.

I would really like a way to find out which theatre the movie I wish to view is in. If it is in the tiny, ridiculously stuffy #3, upstairs on the right, I will not come to see it! What a horrible theatre experience...I felt like a sardine...two different times, and could not enjoy the movie!!

one of the sweetest venues to enjoy good movies and good time from soup to nuts... or rather from popcorn to sound system and from seat comfort to grand Art-deco atmosphere what a gem in the heart of San Rafael to enjoy great films...

I visited for the Banff Outdoor Film Festival. It was a good venue for this. It would be nice if there was additional food offered besides candy and popcorn. Other than that, it was a nice theater.

Las mejores peliculas independientes o con un gran mensaje.

THE Landmark of San Rafael. Find an expansive and encompassing selection of film from around the world, a wonderful alternative to mainstream.

Best art theater in Marin. We joined and live being exposed to the films they bring in. Beautiful inside too.
