| - As a city, Charlotte walks a rather thick line between offering chain & indie options, so it's nice to see a small establishment thrive. However, the Manor Theater IS a Regal property, so I don't know how "indie" it truly is. That being said, the Manor definitely captures the feel of a small arthouse, and it's great that we have this option. With only two screens (hence, "Twin"), there's none of the bells and whistles you would normally find at a movieplex: stadium seating, automated ticket machines, or more than two bathroom stalls. Parking is a bit scarce, as they share a lot with Panera and other businesses, but you can usually find a space around the side or in back. What you will find is the smell of old movie popcorn, cozy red velvet seats, and a place to see great smaller-budget films. We're lucky to have a movie theater with a bit of the old magic still left in her.
