PARAMOUNT FILM SERIES

The landmark Paramount Theatre was built in 1930 as a first run movie theatre. Its elegant, atmospheric design features a beautiful, gilded proscenium and neon lit ceiling, transporting audiences to a Spanish/Moorish courtyard at night, complete with twinkling stars and passing clouds. It is a truly unique movie-going experience and a significant part of film history in the southwest.

The future of civilization rests in the fate of the One Ring, which has been lost for centuries. Powerful forces are unrelenting in their search for it. But fate has placed it in the hands of a young Hobbit named Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood), who inherits the Ring and steps into legend. A daunting task lies ahead for Frodo when he becomes the Ringbearer - to destroy the One Ring in the fires of Mount Doom where it was forged.
