| - I love Filmbar. What could be better than watching an indie film with a good, cold beer in a place where only people with similar interests hang out? The front section of the place, when you walk in, is a small bar with a good selection of bottled beers and wine. (Man, I sure wish they had draft beers -- perhaps get an exclusive on Sedona's Oak Creek Brewing Co. brews). The owner is very friendly and easy to talk to. The other patrons are as well, and love talking about movies and such. Inside a bit further, there's a lounge area that has a good atmosphere, a bunch of bean bag chairs to sit on, and it almost begs for a hookah option. Inside the theater, you have a screen about the size of the smaller ones at a Harkins, but that's OK because you can sit up close and the room only holds about 40 people or so. We saw a good documentary the first time we were there, and now I want to go back and see 13 Assassins. I'll trust this guy to bring in some good stuff to Phoenix. Highly recommended spot! [Edit: After viewing 13 Assassins, we found that the music from the bar was very audible and distracting during quiet parts of this excellent film -- what a shame.]
