Philly Inquirer Feature on 941

"A home at last for local directors and their films"

A.D. Amarosi did a great article on the 941 Theater and the state of indie theatrical screenings in Philadelphia!

"A movie theater in an up-and-coming neighborhood that screens independent films you can't see elsewhere and locally produced flicks - at a time when Hollywood banks on big-dollar Iron Men and Kung Fu Pandas?

Sounds like an awesome idea. And that's what's behind the 941 Theater, the bright green building at 941 N. Front St., in the shadow of I-95 and several shiny new Bart Blatstein developments.

In the spirit of indie everything, 941 is not only the first movie theater in Northern Liberties, it's the first non-chain theater to compete with the Ritzes for independent fare - and show local fare."

"They've always been believers who fight for the cause," says Scott Johnston, 41, a Philly film director and animator who curates events for fellow moviemakers on Tuesdays at N. 3rd, a bar in Northern Liberties.
