If you live in #Portland and enjoy #jazz and haven't seen the Sun Ra Arkestra at the #HollywoodTheatre you should do so the next time they're here because Marshall Allen is a hundred and one years old. Such an amazing show.

The Sun Ra Arkestra Descends Upon Hollywood Theatre

He is a miracle of the highest order, a grand eccentric, and true genius of the cosmos. A peerless 20th century composer, a poet, a brilliant pianist, a live performance visionary, one of the greatest to ever have lived. A man who may or may not have tripped to Saturn, where the doomed pettiness of Earth living was revealed to him. He is legible as a great American artist, but like many great American artists,...

Persistence of Vision Spring 2026 Application

WHAT IS PERSISTENCE OF VISION? Persistence of Vision is an film education program of the Hollywood Theatre designed for 10th, 11th and 12th grade girls of all identities including gender-nonconforming youth to explore our connection to film, both as an art form and as a means of interacting with the world. By creating a dedicated safe space for an often under-appreciated demographic, our aim is to engage in meaningful guided discussions on relevant themes explored in these films and how they transfer to the day-to-day. DO YOU EVER WANT TO SCREAM? How can we be true to ourselves in a world that tries to tell you who you are and who you should be? Women’s role in horror has long been subjected to victimhood, but what does it mean for her to become the villain? When she herself is monstrous? In this Iteration of Persistence of Vision, we’ll explore the idea of the Monstrous Feminine by watching films that examine the grotesque and feature villainous women actively transforming ideas about power and prey. Films in this series will include A GIRL WALKS HOME ALONE AT NIGHT (2014), HOUSE (1977) and JENNIFER’S BODY (2009). We’ll use these films as a vehicle to connect to our own Monstrous Feminine and to discuss how our mangled societal structures play themselves out in the horror genre. PLEASE NOTE: This program is designed to spark conversation about important issues. Because of that, some of the films that will be screened will contain adult situations, profanity, drug/alcohol use, nudity, sexual situations, and violence. COST: Free - though participation is by application only. APPLICATION DUE DATE: Friday 3/27 STUDENTS NOTIFIED: Monday 3/30 DATE OF EVENT: Saturdays April 4-18 LOCATION: Movie Madness Video Miniplex at 4320 SE Belmont St, Portland OR 97215 EVENT DETAILS: Class time will vary depending on that days film, but will follow the structure of: - 12 pm - Start time / Presentation about film - Film Screening - Discussion - We can expect ending time around 3:00-4:00 pm. FILM DETAILS: 4/4 - A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night (2014) 4/11 - House (1977) 4/18 - Jennifer's Body (2009)

Metropolis at The Hollywood Theatre

I attended the sold out showing of Metropolis at the Hollywood Theatre last night. Was a great showing - a sold out crowd - with Dean Lemire at the organ. Overall the organ sounded great despite some tuning slipping on a couple notes (it happens). The crowd seemed to really enjoy it. This was our last film for the year. We'll be back in February with another film.#TheatreOrgan, #PipeOrganPictures, #Portland, #PDX, #HollywoodTheatre, #HollywoodTheatrePortland, #Metropolis, #SilentFilm,
