Iris & B. Gerald Cantor Film Center (NYU)
The Cantor Film Center is a project that has been achieved because of the generosity of Iris and B. Gerald Cantor, thus it is rightly named in their honor.
The Art Moderne-styled Art Theater first opened in 1940, starting as a late-run showcase for American and foreign movies before becoming a first-run theater in the late 1950s, and later, in the 1980s, the Movieland triplex. NYU renovated the space in 1996, adding the facade and creating the three-theater Iris & B. Gerald Cantor Film Center as an all-University facility for larger-capacity classes, screenings, and special events.
