Now that the madness that is October has come to a close, we here at Belcourt Midnights just wanted to take a second to send a huge thanks to our incredible staff. Between 12HoT and Rocky, October is chock full of weird hours, big crowds (seen here), and tons of clean up. We’re so lucky to have an amazing crew of folks who shoulder that insane schedule, sweep up what has to be a metric ton of popcorn, and keep serving you with a smile to ensure you have a great time at the movies. The quality, enthusiasm, dedication, and knowledge of our front of house crew is the best in the biz. They even give excellent film intros from time to time!
It also requires a lot of from our expert crew of projectionists who roll with whatever crazy ideas we throw out, and they always deliver such a beautiful and seamless viewing experience, even when it’s 2am and they’ve worked 4 late nights in a row. A lot of curveballs get thrown their way, from tech issues to “hey can you run this trailer I forgot to send to you until the last minute?” (yeah, my bad), and they make sure that you all are none the wiser.
So, if you’ve read all this and consistently have a good time thanks to these wonderful folks, the next time you’re in, please consider tossing a little extra in the tip bucket to show how much you appreciate them. They’re entirely the reason we’re able to do what we do. See ya at the movies! ...

Now live on our website, new November films — including a new Restoration Roundup > bit.ly/Belcourt-Films 🎬 ...

Hey Witches! 🪄😏
Join us for our next meetup this Saturday, October 26th at 10 am @belcourttheatre for their “She’s a Witch!” seminar on the Witch in history and film, led by Jessica Lowe, lecturer in gender and sexuality studies at Vanderbilt University.

From the Belcourt:
“In this seminar, we’ll explore the figure of the witch in cinema, from 1922’s HAXAN to 2015’s THE WITCH and beyond. We’ll look at the earliest filmic depictions of the witch — in particular, films that explore the early modern witch and witch-hunt. We’ll think about legacies of the witch, changing depictions of the witch, and divergent ways both the witch and the “hunt” take on meaning.”

Hope to see you there! ✨

(🩸PS-for all of you Carrie voters out there, keep your eyes peeled🩸) ...

Before witches became a Halloween season staple with their black hats, warts, and broomsticks, they were a figure of power and fear across the world and for thousands of years. But in 15th century Europe, a peculiar and ominous witch-figure was born: that of the diabolical witch, complicit in a continent-wide conspiracy led by the Devil himself. This early modern witch-figure contained within it fears of unruly gender, aberrant theological belief, and defiance of lawful authority. And, tragically, it was grimly instrumental in the European “witch-hunt” to come.

In this seminar, we’ll explore the figure of the witch in cinema, from 1922’s HÄXAN to 2015’s THE WITCH and beyond. We’ll look at the earliest filmic depictions of the witch — in particular, films that explore the early modern witch and witch-hunt. We’ll think about legacies of the witch, changing depictions of the witch, and divergent ways both the witch and the “hunt” take on meaning. ...

In May 2025, the Belcourt Theatre turns 100!

Throughout the upcoming centennial year, we’ll celebrate the Belcourt’s history, the people and groups that marked its many chapters, the communities that have shaped it, and the theatre’s place in Nashville’s past, present and future.

To help fund this celebration and its related projects, we turn to the generous community that has supported the Belcourt at so many important junctures. In honor and support of the Belcourt’s centennial year, we’ve launched the Belcourt 100 Donor Circle — to seek gifts of $1,000 from 100 donors, specifically in support of our centennial programs and events.

You can learn more about the Belcourt 100 Donor Circle at the link in our bio, or belcourt.org/belcourt-100-donor-circle. ...
