One thing unusual about this theater is there is not a concession stand. Bring your own snacks and fill up your water bottle before you go in because the bathroom and water fountain are not within the theater complex. Many of the movies that are shown here are independent films and more of the art house variety.

Obviously, they're not 'renovating' anything. They're about to be evicted:…read more https://www.ksdk.com/article/news/local/business-journal/plaza-frontenac-seeking-to-evict-movie-theater/63-2b8280a3-d003-4a06-b855-93ed62c452ab Good riddance. What a depressing dump.

Folke Filbyter is by…read moreSwedish artist Carl Milles (1875-1955) and the plaque indicates that it is on loan from the Saint Louis Art Museum. According to the artist's statement, "Milles had been inspired by an episode in the Swedish author and Nobel Laureate Verner von Heidenstam's novel Folkungaträdet when he created Folke Filbyter, who was the heathen ancestor of the Folkunga dynasty. According to an old Swedish myth, Folke Filbyter was searching for his grandson who had been kidnapped by the monks. In this sculpture, he is apparently crossing a brook while engrossed in his search." The detail in the sculpture is quite impressive. And I found other copies of it online, including one at the Tate in London and in the center of a fountain in a plaza in Linköping, Sweden. [Review 1745 of 2024 - 381 in Missouri - 22768 overall]
