The Montalban Theatre

Join us on May 9th for the debut of 'Skyline Cinema Club', LA Explained’s new rooftop film series at the historic Montalbán Theatre in the heart of Hollywood. This curated lineup celebrates cinema that captures the good, the bad, and the beautifully bizarre sides of Los Angeles—past, present, and future.​

From cult classics to iconic blockbusters, each screening pairs unforgettable films with gourmet food, craft drinks, and live entertainment—set against golden-hour skies, skyline views, and the neon glow of Hollywood history. With themed programming, surprise guests, and post-screening Q&As, Skyline Cinema Club is more than a movie night—it’s an interactive love letter to the city that invented the silver screen.​

We’re kicking things off with Sunset Blvd. (1950), a film that’s more than just a classic—it’s a haunting love letter to Hollywood itself. From the swaying palms of Sunset Boulevard to the grandeur of the now-demolished mansion on Wilshire that Norma Desmond called home, the film paints a vivid portrait of a city built on dreams, disillusionment, and stardom.​

Experience this iconic masterpiece the way it was meant to be seen—on the big screen, under the stars, and in the heart of Hollywood.
