The Pine Bluff Film Festival features classic films, (including silent), in the fall. Each year, festival organizers invite a luminary guest star to appear in person.

One or more films featuring the guest star are shown in The Community Theater in Pine Bluff, Arkansas. Other selected classic films, symposiums and lectures round out a complete menu of movie delicacies to satisfy the most voracious appetites for film and film lore.

The Community Theater, a typical theater you'd expect to see from the late thirties through the fifties, was restored to vintage condition by local film and history aficionado Bill Bettwy, a retired senior pilot for American Airlines.




Faithfully restored by Pine Bluff film enthusiast and philanthropist, Bill Bettwy, the Comnunity Theatre harkens back to days of Saturday serials and 10¢ movie admission. Just by stepping through the doors and sniffing irresistable fresh popping corn, one fondly remembers childhood amazement at daring exploits, side splitting cartoons and tear-jerking drama. Parents with restless youngsters can still repair to the theatre's convenient, "crying room" and not miss a minute of the feature.
