Cinema 21, Movie theater in northwest Portland, US

Cinema 21 presents independent films, foreign language movies, and documentaries across three screens in a renovated building on Northwest 21st Avenue.

The cinema started in 1926 as The State Theater with silent films and live music before changing names several times until becoming Cinema 21 in 1962.

The theater serves as a central venue for major film events, including the Portland International Film Festival and screenings with directors Steven Soderbergh and Gus Van Sant.

The facility provides wheelchair access, gender-neutral restrooms, assistive listening devices, closed captioning, and audio description services for selected screenings throughout the year.

Films like Slackers, Drugstore Cowboy, and Moonlight made their Portland debuts at this theater, which maintains its original 1920s architectural elements.
