  • The marquees at the Mayan, the Chez Artiste and the Esquire beckon film-lovers with the promise of foreign, independent or just-off-the-mainstream fare - some movies that may arrive in Colorado Springs in the coming months and others that never will come here - such movies as Mike Leigh's "Topsy-Turvy," Woody Allen's "Sweet and Lowdown" and Patricia Rozema's adaptation of Jane Austen's "Mansfield Park."[1]
  • This year marks the 25th year of the "Rocky Horror Picture Show's" continuous run in movie theaters around the world. To celebrate, the Esquire Theatre, 590 Downing, Denver, is featuring Ellusive Ingredient, a live Rocky Horror Picture Show cast, to perform before and during the midnight showings Saturdays. This Saturday marks the cast's debut, and anyone who attends will receive an audience participation kit. (If you haven't seen the movie, audience participation is a good part of the fun -but we suggest keeping the fact that you haven't seen the movie before a well-guarded secret.) Anyone who shows up in costume or drag gets a prize. Pictured above, in a scene in the 1975 flick are, from left, Rocky (Peter Hinwood), Frank N Furter (Tim Curry), Janet (Susan Sarandon) and Brad (Barry Bostwick). Tickets ($7.50) go on sale the day of the showing.[2]

ARY SCREENING OF THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW WITH COLORADO'S ELUSIVE INGREDIENT SHADOW CAST (CEI) who has been Shadowcasting the Rocky Horror Picture Show in Denver since 2000. Based at Landmark's Esquire Theatre, CEI provides the full RHPS experience with audience participation, costumes, props, and tons of airborne toilet paper! CEI holds the world's record for largest RHPS performance, with over 8,500 people turning out to see the film at Red Rocks in 2013. Raunchy, rowdy, and risqué, mixes old school with modern debauchery. Come be offended all over again! This event is open to SFF Redrum & Horror Marathon badge holders, individual tickets can be purchased beginning April 2 for $10 DFS member and locals / $12 non-member.[3]

  • "The Room" is considered the worst movie of all time -- which makes Wiseau the new Ed Wood, his movie the "Citizen Kane" of crap. Locals will get a chance to judge it for themselves this weekend when it shows at midnight at Denver's Esquire Theatre tonight and Saturday.[4]
  • Mindy Posey of the Landmark Theatre Corp. chain thinks rental demand may be slack. Landmark's Esquire Theater shows "Rocky Horror" at midnight on Saturdays, and consistently draws about 115 costumed, dialogue-shouting, paper-tossing devotees. "Half the reason people go to see it is for audience participation. You lose that on video," Posey said.[5]
  • "Denver fans of 'Rocky Horror,' as it's commonly called - or just RHPS - have been making these midnight Saturday pilgrimages to an inner-city movie house for a full 25 years now... This is just one of five cities in the country that can boast a quarter-century of continuous showings, said Scott Sworts, an architect trainee and, in his spare time, member of Colorado's Elusive Ingredient, the all-volunteer "cast" that performs every weekend at the Esquire with the movie. (The other cities are New York, San Francisco, Houston and Los Angeles.)... 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' is a campy send-up of the science fiction, horror and musical genres, but the film itself is a minor part of the RHPS experience. Actors dress up as the characters and shout lines from the film as well as their own original dialogue during the show. They move up and down the aisles, sometimes sitting with viewers, sometimes standing in front of the screen... That back-and-forth has become the cornerstone of the "audience participation" that now makes this movie famous - and far more popular than it ever was when it was released in September 1975... Starring then-newcomers Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick, along with British actor Tim Curry, who starred in the London stage version of the show (which predated the film), 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' failed miserably in test markets... But then something odd happened. Reports vary as to where the audience participation started; one Web site devoted to the show says it was in Los Angeles that a group of audience members kept returning regularly and started singing along with musical numbers. Another site says it all began at the Waverly Theatre in New York, with fans dressing up as characters for a Halloween 1976 showing... In any event, 20th Century Fox decided to market it as a midnight movie in the 1980s, and well-attended showings became parties... The audience was encouraged to participate, and they began bringing props - rice to throw during the film's opening wedding scene, newspapers to put over their heads during a rainstorm on the screen, and toast and toilet paper to hurl during other parts of the film... In Denver, "Rocky Horror" has been at the Esquire for eight years; before that, it aired at the Ogden Theatre, where costumed viewers and actors often fit in unnoticed with the eclectic East Colfax Avenue scene. Tonight and Saturday, in honor of the 25th anniversary and Halloween, the Esquire at 590 Downing St. will do midnight showings with a costume contest, and Landmark Theater city manager David Kimball expects the 450-seat house to fill both nights. (Tickets at $7.75 each go on sale at 11 p.m. each night; there are no advance sales.)[6]
  • "This is just part of the history lesson you'll get this weekend as the Mayan and Esquire - two of Denver's art-house stalwarts - celebrate the former's 75th anniversary with a series of special events and screenings... 'The community has embraced these theaters for many, many years,' says David Kimball, city manager for Landmark, which programs the Mayan, Esquire and the Chez Artiste. 'I think they will continue to do so, and this is just a way for us to say thanks.' ... The Mayan opened in 1930, complete with a faux Indian ceremony. The Esquire - originally called the Hiawatha - had opened at East Sixth Avenue and Downing Street in 1927. It reopened as the Esquire in 1942 with "Thunderbirds." ... In 1988, the Esquire swirled in controversy when it had the city's exclusive run of "The Last Temptation of Christ," by Martin Scorsese. Nothing pushes ticket sales quite like a dust-up; the Esquire reported record attendance."[7]
  • "Landmark Theaters, operators of the Ogden, the Mayan and the Esquire, say there will be little loss to the city from the Ogden closing. It's true, some films will move to the upstairs screen at the Esquire or the Mayan, and with the three screens at United Artist's Chez Artiste, Denver will continue to get a good selection of non-mainstream pictures."[8]
  • Andrews, Brian (1997-09-08). "Where the Action Is". Highlander. p. 6. Archived from the original on 2023-11-06. Retrieved 2024-05-01. For independent flicks, the Landmark chain, which includes the Mayan, the Chez Artiste, and the Esquire, provides quality movies compared to most of what Hollywood shoves down our throats.

  • For each showing of "Naked Gun 33 1/3" or "Schindler's List," octagonal metal boxes housing an average of six reels of film totaling 50 pounds are shipped cross-country. On days when it is not open for a matinee, the Esquire on Downing Street has to have its bulky art-house flicks delivered to the dry cleaner's next door.[15]

Managementy things

edit
  • Rebecca Cole manages the Esquire Theater, 590 Downing St., which shows mainly independent films that usually don't attract big, mainstream audiences. She said extremely hot weather does draw customers. "Nice weather, people want to go to the mountains," Cole said. But this week, "I've seen a lot of people who are really grateful for the air-conditioning."[16]

2019

  • And yet, there are more options than ever for Mile High cinephiles. Landmark Theatres, which owns the Chez Artiste, Mayan and Greenwood Village movie houses, last month unveiled a top-to-bottom renovation of its historic Esquire Theatre following a burst pipe, with comfy, spacious new seating and upgraded concessions. (Landmark officials declined to comment on details.) That was a relief for people who feared Landmark might not have seen the value in renovating and instead would sell the real estate under the theater's East 6th Avenue perch.[17]
  • Denver's historic Esquire Theatre will reopen June 14 after water damage and repairs shuttered it late last year... "We're back ... and better than ever!" Esquire owner Landmark Theatres said in a press statement. "Be sure to come in and check out our modern, comfortable seats and improved theater-going experience." Esquire would not elaborate on the improvements... Landmark officials have been tight-lipped about the closure since it was first reported in December. The company confirmed a utility outage that led to the water damage but declined to elaborate... Landmark, which also operates the Mayan, Chez Artiste and Landmark Greenwood Village, first acquired the Esquire in 1980. The theater's iconic sign has beckoned art-house devotees and midnight movie-goers along a busy stretch of East Sixth Avenue for more than 90 years... The opening title on Esquire's revived schedule will be Jim Jarmusch's star-studded zombie flick "The Dead Don't Die." The Friday-Saturday midnight series and other programming will resume July 5, according to Landmark spokesman Hugh Wronski. -- John Wenzel [18]

Contexty things

edit
  • Denver has become one of the top markets for Landmark Theatres, the nation's leading art-film exhibitor, according to its vice president of marketing, Ray Price. Landmark operates eight screens at the Mayan, Chez Artiste and Esquire theaters... "It's a hard business," Price said. "The very definition of independent film is that what "they' don't want is what we pick up. We get the theaters that are abandoned, the films the studios don't want. But if you work hard and get lucky, it works out."[34]
  • And there is confectionary life beyond Goobers, Dots and Whoppers. These days, at Landmark's Esquire Theatre, chocolate lovers can enjoy an imported Lindt bar while watching the 7:30 p.m. showing of "Chocolat." (At $2.75, it doesn't cost much more than a domestic candy bar.) Mayan Theatre moviegoers are fond of the Vienna bagel dogs... At Chez Artiste, the icy Italian sodas are popular. The Mayan and Esquire theaters have a barista on hand who can froth up cappuccinos or half-caf lattes. Haydn Sillech, president of Colorado Cinema Holdings, which recently took over six Mann Theaters in the metro area, says Dippin' Dots - those tiny frozen pellets that look like sleet but taste like ice cream, sort of - have proven to be a big draw, especially for younger viewers. Ditto the hot pretzels.[35]

Had a 70mm at one point

edit
  • "2001" opens today at the Esquire Theatre for what is advertised as a one-week run. The theater has one of the two new 70-millimeter prints, featuring a digitally restored and remastered sound track, that Warner Bros. Pictures prepared last year to "celebrate" "2001" in 2001.[36]
  • Robert Altman's "Short Cuts" isn't always successful, but it's interesting from start to finish. Altman tells the stories of a number of different families and couples who manage to connect in one way or another by the end. It's a typical Altman blend of overlapping scenes and dialogue that has enormous visual power even when the story turns maudlin or empty. Just about everyone is in the movie - Matthew Modine, Lily Tomlin, Tom Waits, Lyle Lovett, Anne Archer, Jack Lemmon and others. The movie is playing in 70mm at the Esquire.[37]

Exclusives

edit
  • "An Inconvenient Truth," starring former Vice President Al Gore, opens in New York and Los Angeles on May 24, the same day Gore`s new book of the same title comes out. The movie arrives in Colorado on June 9, showing at Denver`s Esquire Theatre, 590 Downing St.[38]
  • [Yellow Submarine] digitally renovated and presented in DTS digital stereo sound, opens today for a one-week engagement at the Esquire Theatre. For the first time in the U.S., it will contain the animated sequence for the song "Hey Bulldog." This was cut from the original release, perhaps because the Lennon composition was too much a churning, hard-edged rocker for the dreamy, cheerfully psychedelic mood of the film.[39]
  • That's the topic of a new documentary film, "Who Killed the Electric Car?"... Viewers will get a chance to decide for themselves on GM's motives when the film makes its Denver debut tonight in a special screening at the Esquire Theatre, then begins a longer run July 14.[40]
  • On the other hand, Fonda achieved a genuine career re-invention in "Ulee's Gold," which was a thoughtful independent film about - among other things - the meaning of nonviolence in a violent country... It opened exclusively at the Esquire Theatre in June, and was still playing first-run long after "Batman & Robin" and "The Lost World" had departed their first-run screens. (At its peak, "Ulee's Gold" was in several suburban locations, too.)[41]
  • A premiere screening of "That's Entertainment! III" will be 7:30 p.m. July 6 at the Esquire Theater, 540 Downing St. A reception follows at the Denver Buffalo Company, 1109 Lincoln St. Admission for the film and and party is $25 a person, film only, $10. Call 298-8223.[42]
  • Shayvision, a film chronicling the life of Davis, who has emerged as a nationally renowned artist since his playing days in Boulder, will will make its Colorado premiere at 7 p.m. tonight at the Esquire Landmark Theatre in Denver.[43]

Just midnight

edit
  • Stay up late - Friday and Saturday. More late-night viewing. No rest for the bleary as the Esquire's midnight series gives cult darling "Birdemic: Shock and Terror" its Colorado premiere. Inspired by a flock of seagulls - not the band but those in Hitchcock's seaside thriller - director James Nguyen delivers a cheesy homage. This one's for "The Birds." Midnight at the Esquire Theatre, 590 Downing St. $7.25. landmarktheatres.com or 303-352-1992.[44]
  • Esquire entanglement - Doesn't sound quite right to kill two (love)birds with one stone. But tonight and Valentine Day's night you can take your adored to "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," a strangely romantic flick about romantic estrangement. Michel Gondry directed this Charlie Kaufman-penned wonder, which has two midnight showings at the Esquire theater. Jim Carrey is terrific as Joel Barish, a guy who learns his ex-gal has undergone a procedure that erased him from her memory. He opts for the same experimental treatment, then struggles with the decision. Consider this a well-timed chance to also catch Oscar nominee Kate Winslet in one of her finest roles to date as Joel's fading beloved, Clementine. Midnight tonight and Saturday. Rated R. 108 minutes. $7.25. Esquire Theatre, East Sixth Avenue and Downing Street; 303-733-9939 or landmarktheatres.com[45]
  • Kid "Dynamite" - FILM|Lights! Water buffalo! Action! Did someone say "action"?

  • "Se7en" remains unpleasantly burrowed in the mind, with its startling dispatch of one of the lead characters. The roundhouse mayhem of "Fight Club" (midnight tonight and Saturday at the Esquire Theatre) left this moviegoer sitting stunned in a parking lot.[46]
