Cinestudio, an independent movie theater located at the center of Trinity\u2019s campus, attracts students, faculty members, Hartford-area residents, and theatergoers from all over New England and beyond. With its legendary sound and picture quality, Cinestudio provides a venue for patrons to immerse themselves in foreign, national, independent, and critically acclaimed films. The theater\u2014founded nearly 50 years ago by a team of enthusiastic Trinity students, including James Hanley \u201972 and Peter McMorris \u201973, who continue its daily operations\u2014first opened its doors in 1970 in a renovated Clement Chemistry Building lecture hall. Cinestudio, which became a not-for-profit arts institution in 2002, holds daily showings that include classics such as Stanley Kubrick\u2019s 2001: A Space <\/em>Odyssey\u2014shown on physical 70mm film\u2014and newer Oscar-winners such as The Shape of Water<\/em> and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri<\/em>. The theater also hosts several annual film festivals. April in Paris offers French-language films and often features question-and-answer sessions with directors and actors. The spring\u2019s student-run Trinity Film Festival, which just celebrated its seventh year, showcases undergraduate student-made films from around the world that are judged for awards. Early summer brings the Connecticut LGBT Film Festival, which marked its 31st year this past summer; it aims to spread awareness of queer-related issues. Students also may volunteer and assume leadership roles to help run the theater. Lauren Wiener \u201918, who as Cinestudio coordinator recruited and trained student volunteers, says that it is the \u201csmall scale and intimate nature of the theater that make it really special.\u201d For more information, please visit https:\/\/www.cinestudio.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n
