We’ll never say no to more Nolan 🦇 Join us tonight in a dark room for The Dark Knight. (Now try saying that 10 times fast).

7:30PM | Saturday, July 18

THE DARK KNIGHT (2008)
Batman, Lt. Jim Gordon, and District Attorney Harvey Dent join forces to take down Gotham’s remaining criminal organizations. Their plan starts to work, until a new criminal called the Joker throws the city into chaos and pushes each of them toward impossible choices. Part of our Christopher Nolan Retrospective, it follows BATMAN BEGINS and comes before INCEPTION, marking the point where Nolan’s crime-film instincts, large-scale action, and practical IMAX spectacle fully collided.

It’s Odyssey week! Christopher Nolan’s star studded epic opens at the Palm this Friday.

THE ODYSSEY (2026)
Odysseus, the legendary King of Ithaca, begins a dangerous journey home after the Trojan War, facing gods, monsters, and one impossible obstacle after another. Christopher Nolan brings his large-scale, big-screen approach to one of the oldest adventure stories ever told. We’re also showing more of Nolan’s films as part of our “Christopher Nolan Retrospective,” making this a perfect time to revisit the filmmaker’s epic sense of spectacle.
