In anticipation of
@GroovyBruce
's Last Fan Standing (here, Nov 15), we'll be screening ARMY OF DARKNESS on Sunday, Nov 4! Get your tickets here and soon!
There wont be a better or creepier place to come watch The Shining on the big screen than Liberty Hall. Come watch with us, Danny. Forever and ever 🪐
January 19th-21st!
Influence and Homage! We’re doing a joint Robert Altman/PTA series 🪐
Join us for Nashville, The Long Goodbye, and McCabe & Mrs. Miller from Altman and Magnolia, Boogie Nights and There Will Be Blood from his protege, PTA. We’ll kick things off with Nashville in March 22nd-24th
🚨 🎞 BREAKING NEWS! The Lighthouse opens this Friday! 11/2 From Robert Eggers, the visionary filmmaker behind modern horror masterpiece The Witch, comes this hypnotic and hallucinatory tale of two lighthouse keepers on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s.
A great time to remind people to support the Liberty Hall Video Library! We do our best to retain a vast collection of films, without having to wonder which app you need to download or if it’s going to be taken down at the end of the month, never to be seen again.
Ever wondered about those gorgeous, gigantic murals in the big theater? It’s a piece entitled Starry Way conceived by local artist, Dennis Helm. Helm worked on the restoration of Liberty Hall from 1985-1987, at times painting with brushes on broom handles to get to the ceiling.
Today a customer mentioned that she could get a new hardcover book online for $15. Our mission is not to shame anyone for their shopping practices, but we do feel a responsibility to educate about what it means when a new hardcover is available for $15 online.
If you’re planning a visit to see one of our fine films, keep in mind that as an indie cinema we only have about five minutes of trailers! The window to be late is just a bit smaller and we don’t want anyone to miss any important opening scenes ✨
We are very proud to be a part of Liberty Hall’s long history of fighting for the rights of all Kansans, and we’re not going to stop now! We hope the
@cityoflawrenceks
does not enforce this law, but know that we certainly wont.
We’re ending February with one final love themed section! This weeks picks are movies where they weren’t actin! Films where the co stars brought their work home with them. Pictures where the love is both on and off screen! You get it, they hooked up.
“Not everyone has wifi, particularly at high enough speeds for streaming, including the elderly and people living on low incomes or in rural areas.” We are proud to support those who use our store in their film watching endeavors! Everyone deserves access to movies!
You can’t fight in here! This is the War Room!
We’re launching a Stanley Kubrick series to run alongside Carpenter and Sweaty Lumet this fall and winter.
Dr. Strangelove will play NEXT WEEKEND from November 3rd-5th. Showtimes to come! 🪐
SUPPORTING PHYSICAL MEDIA IS THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP RARE FILMS AROUND SO YOU SHOULD RENT AT YOUR LOCAL VIDEO STORE RATHER THAN STREAM BECAUSE ITS ACTUALLY CHEAPER AND ENSURES ACCESS TO THESE TITLES FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS. HBO MAX DOESNT LOVE YOU LIKE THEY WOULD AT LIBERTY HALL VID-
Please remember tonight that Liberty Hall is a historic building and we work hard to keep it nice for you so while we encourage some audience participation we ask you to try not to trash the joint or throw anything at the screen (we just cleaned it) Thanks! 👄
We’re still here and we’re still renting! Just come to the Liberty Hall Box Office video window! For now we’re continuing to use the old drop box until we get a replacement so feel free to drop rentals as you go about your day!
We will be closing at 5PM today! We gave it our best shot but we want our employees and patrons to be safe above all. See y’all tomorrow! Tell your friends. ♥️
This fall we’re screening the Sweaty Lumet series: The High Tension Films of Sidney Lumet!
Join us in showings of Dog Day Afternoon, 12 Angry Men, Fail Safe and Serpico! 🪐
Looks like Team Jacob won last night! Will Team Edward pull ahead tonight or have we all still not forgiven him for leaving Bella in New Moon?
Come see Twilight today with us!
3:00, 5:30 and 8:00 in the Main Theater!
Last night over a hundred people came out to watch our 8pm showing of Twilight!!!
Thanks to everyone who showed up to support their local cinema and watch some sparkly vampires 🧛♂️
@larryvillelife
If an Oscar winner for best film continually meets our attendance goals and demand continues to exceed our expectations we see it as a huge win for our tiny humble independent cinema! A film like this deserves to be in the big screen as long as they’ll let us.
Wuv. Twue wove, is what bwings us togevaaaaa today! ❤️
Happy Valentine’s Day! We’re showing the Princess Bride ALL day
12:00 - Main Theater
2:30 - Main Theater
5:00 - Main Theater
8:00 - Main Theater
There's probably as much weed in our DVD cases as there is cocaine on any given dollar bill. Just one more reason physical media is so important.

The Shining is the third and final part of our Kubrick series, and much like the Overlook Hotel, not everything at the Hall can be explained. Come join us (and Jason and Darth) next weekend and see The Shining on the big screen! 🪐
Staff Picks from the Stacks!
@Kaliebud
pick this week is Punch Drunk Love, directed by Paul Thomas Anderson. You can rent this title and more at Liberty Hall Video, in the box office, open every day from 1-9pm 🪐
This week our picks are some of our favorite Nepo Babies, the Skarsgards! Stellan Skarsgard has 8 children (vasectomy in 2012) and 4 of them are actors. Come check out Alexander in The Northman or Bill in the IT series. Gustav had a role in Westworld. Sorry Valter. Step it up.
Do you know how hard it is to have a double staircase and never be able to get patrons to race you up to the big theater? Have you ever even considered that?
It’s gonna be a September of Swayze here at Liberty Hall!
Roadhouse - September 22nd, 23rd and 24th
Dirty Dancing - September 15th, 16th and 17th
Ghost - September 29th, September 30th and October 1st

We’re clearing out our VHS vault and we need your help! Come grab a piece of Hall history from the video store this month or FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEACE!!! 🪦
The inventory is done! All movies accounted for, no film left behind. Liberty Hall Video is STILL renting movies out of the box office every day from 1-9pm!
Check it out at our website or on our Letterboxd account under “lists” at
The Liberty Hall Video library has a new featured section!
Sure we stole the theme from Criterion but we chose different movies. Come check out some beautiful color contrast, shots of light coming in through the blinds, and scenes of beautiful dames smokin' a cigarette.
Spaceballs is looking great on the big screen! This past year our projectors in both theaters got a bit of a makeover. Now the picture is better than ever!
We’ll be screening it tomorrow as well at 1:00, 6:00, and 8:30 in the Little Theater. May the Schwartz Be With You ✨
New Picks of the week!
“Damn I made a person and now I gotta deal with all this??”
Featuring Frankenstein, We Need to Talk About Kevin, Pinocchio, Ruby Sparks, and Weird Science ⚡️
Staff picks from the stacks! This week, Kalie’s pick is, of course, Enemy Mine. If you’ve encountered Kalie in the Hall, she’s probably told you about Enemy Mine. This 1985 cult film starring Dennis Quaid is available to rent at Liberty Hall Video, along with many, many others 🪐
We love being able to show KU games on our big-ass movie screen but in order to do that, we still have to show movies, even during Final Four. Thanks to our wonderful patrons who understand that! Be safe tonight and

Netflix’s has introduced their anti-password sharing method:
Once every 31 days, your device must log in on your home Wi-Fi network or your account will be blocked.
(via: )
Did you all know that every movie ticket you buy is also a coupon for $2 off the next movie you see within 31 days? What a damn DEAL that's mad advantageous for everyone involved!
Beautiful marble staircases and stunning murals decorating the walls of the main theatre make the movie experience feel even richer. Walking into the space feels as though you’ve time traveled back to a bygone era.
