About the movie: There has been a Laemmle in the movie business since there’s been a movie business. This is the story of a beloved Arthouse Cinema chain in Los Angeles with an astounding legacy. Over four generations, Laemmle’s have dedicated themselves to supporting, innovating, and elevating the art of filmmaking. Popularizing independent films, documentary films, and their filmmakers, the Laemmle Theatres’ impact on Hollywood and world cinema cannot be overstated.
Filmed over 2+ years, Only in Theaters chronicles the Laemmle family, their business, and their determination to survive. But in a changing world, this is also a story about the future of Cinema.

Cosmic Disco Detective Rene And The Mystery Of Immortal Time Travelers: The Secret Society For Slow Romance 2
"Indie filmmaking at its finest,...one charming comedy." - Moviegoing With Bill
"The funny, hopeful, and spirited sci-fi comedy explores concepts such as simulation theory and multiple dimensions..." - Jamie Toth, Cyclops At The Cinema
"A delightfully fun and well written indie comedy" - Special Mark Productions
Are immortal time travelers going back in time to disrupt the past? Is that a threat to our time period? The government wants to know so they hire Rene, the famous New York City private detective who uses unusual methods - including using the background sound of the universe, which sounds like disco music - to find the answers. The looming threat of secret conventional and nuclear attacks on a light bridge/time bridge above Brooklyn drive Rene to try to solve the mystery fast.
Cosmic Disco Detective Rene is the sequel to The Secret Society For Slow Romance from early 2022 ("...an entertaining and optimistic comedy with an authentic indie spirit." - Film Threat). In this new movie writer/director/actor Sujewa Ekanayake and actor Alia Lorae return for a wild New York City science-fiction comedy adventure.
