THE REUNION:
Here are the some of the movies coming your way.
about the oriental:
Originally opened in 1927 as a movie palace for all of the
premiere movie screenings in Milwaukee. The space is
ornately decorated with stained glass chandeliers, Buddha
statues, porcelein lions, and two miranet towers out front.
In 1976, Landmark Theatres bought out the space and has
since kept its facilities in their original condition. The
Oriental has become Milwaukee’s main stop for indie,
international, and classic film screenings.
