It's part of a number of classic movies returning to theaters. Ben-Hur, It's A Wonderful Life and others. So, keep an eye out in July if you're interested.

Just in time for its Orchid Anniversary!

Is this just a money grab thing. I mean some movies I might want to see in a theatre and I'm guessing that theatres are not making money like they used to, but I seem to recall a second-tier theatre showing old movies as a thing if these movies are going to be playing in first-tier theatres.

I'm guessing it is to help them out with new movies not really paying the theatre any money from ticket sales and they need to sell food and other things to cover their costs.

Some of the movies are hitting milestone years. Like It's A Wonderful Life and The Maltese Falcon will be 80 this year. Ocean's Eleven is 25 years old. It's always about the money in the end, but if some of the movies they're offering are worth it to you then does it matter? I haven't seen any of them in a theater. It could be worth it just to say that I finally got a chance.
