Avon Cinema
The Avon Cinema is Providence's other excellent independent cinema. So far I've seen about three or four movies there already. Last night I went to see Jane Austen Book Club. It was quite good, I liked it.
The best movie I've seen there, and right up there with the best of any movies I've seen, was called Live In Maid. You can watch the trailer here. It is an Argentinian film which somehow reflects world and Argentinian politics/economics solely through the depiction of two women - one is the live-in maid of the other woman.
I had never even heard of this movie, and so I think that's why the Avon cinema is great, because they show excellent movies that get little exposure.
Also, the decor is cool. It was built in 1943 say the people in the photo below.

I think they just remade Live in Maid in English. My parents said the Argentina version is much MUCH better.
ha! The originals are always better, usually, I think so, I'm pretty sure, maybe. Probably
