Cinemas Alpes-Maritimes

The Cinéma Variétés is located not far from the very centre of Nice, and it is easily recognizable by the two large palm trees that stand in front of its entrance. The programming is not very original, there are not many auteur films here, but rather classical productions (which does not hurt), even if there is still a certain majority of French films on the bill. And for foreign films, they are offered in their original version, which is a significant advantage. But its strong point is its price, which is much more reasonable than the large chains nearby. In short, it is an attractive little cinema.

A true niçese institution placed on Garibaldi Square, this heritage cinema dedicated to author films is one of the oldest in the City. Its rooms broadcast more than twenty films a week, from the recent outflows to research works, to the great classics. Original versions, first vision films and extended programming for some feature films that are not long on display are also part of the mission of this place, which has been bringing together the cinema for more than 40 years. In addition to this, cinema offers many animations dedicated to young people during school holidays.

To attend a film at the Cinémathèque de Nice, you must fill out a subscription form: the monthly program will then be sent to your home. The legacy of the 7 th art is filled by the rich programming that offers between 350 and 400 films per year projected under maximum comfort (and V.O. for foreign films) and often punctuated by meetings and debates. Classical films, major works of silent film or recent feature films too quickly disappeared from posters are given to film-makers who also benefit from lectures on history, aesthetics and cinema techniques.

All the classics to discover in a very beautiful room of the center. Once a month, the film library organises debates around a film.
