Milwaukee Film

Just before August ends, fresh summer cinema arrives! Tony, Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, Cotoye vs. Acme, Spiderman: Brand New Day, and more are now showing in our historic theatres. Don’t miss the last two films in our 70mm series ending this week, Sinners and Lawrence of Arabia!

Start September off with a bang: Akira 4K Remaster starting 9/4. PLUS: Join us 9/10 at 6:30 PM for a one-night-only screening of The African Desperate presented in partnership with Sculpture Milwaukee and the Bronzeville Center for the Arts. Starting 9/11 join us for the 4K restoration of Marry Harron’s I Shot Andy Warhol. Come out for the next screening in our Cinematic Sisterhood Series, Dreams In Nightmares 9/16 with Director Shatara Michelle Ford expected for a Q&A with Milwaukee filmmaker Dasha Kelly.

One of the best things about being Milwaukee Film is we can show film on film. ESPECIALLY 70mm. We’re the only cinema in the city (and 1 of less than 20 in the country!) that can do it year-round, and this August we’re doing it big time. Come watch a week’s worth of masterpieces on 70mm in the most beautiful theatre in the world, exhibited with care by our dedicated projectionist team.

We’d like to enter into evidence this series of four films presented in partnership with experts from Foley & Lardner, wherein lawyers—and the law—are the star of the show. Each of these films has been accused of being “excellent” and “captivating”; previous witness testimony describes some of them as “among the best films of all time.” Ultimately, audiences of the jury, the decision is yours to make.

Documentary films open conversations and expand minds. Mark your calendar for September 24-27 in 2026 and plan to join us for four days of films and discussions that will fill your heart and mind with timely, relevant, and true stories.
