The Union Theater is one of the best entertainment spots available
in the Milwaukee area. The
theater, available right in the Union on campus, screens films consistently
throughout the fall and spring semesters.
Marathons, such as the French Film Festival or the Nordic Film Festival
bring foreign language features to a Milwaukee theater screen that would be
otherwise very difficult to find even through online streaming services. Other times classic films, such as Mean
Streets, Enter The Dragon, Fallen Angels, Barbarella, and even the original
Django are screened. Occasionally
there will even be a few mainstream titles, such as The Dark Knight Rises,
screening. The best part, whenever
it is possible the films are projected in their 35 mm format, something that is
very rapidly becoming an exclusive to Milwaukee feature for the Union Theater.
Now here’s what makes the Union Theater one of the
best. Its almost always completely
free. That’s right, free
movies. Even the mainstream
releases can be seen for the low price of your free time. Snack foods, including organic popcorn
and mars candy products, are also incredibly cheap, often being at a lower
price than anywhere else on campus.
Simply put, the Union Theater is a perfect choice for any movie lovers
out there.
Note: Every so often there is a screening that costs
money. However, these screenings
usually cost only $4 for students, making the Union theater one of the cheapest
theaters in town as well.
