Landmark E Street Cinema

The eight-screen Landmark is the city’s leading arthouse. Screens are big, even in the smallest of the auditoriums. This is one of only three DC cinemas with a liquor license; other amenities include upscale concessions and an espresso bar. Landmark also operates the roomier Bethesda Row in suburban Maryland, which also shows artsy flicks, but the Downtown theater’s bookings tend to be more adventurous.
