Film Forum, a non-profit cinema in New York City, has showcased independent and foreign films since 1970. It has expanded from a small venue to a four-screen cinema with a $6 million operating budget. Film Forum programs diverse films, including NYC theatrical premieres, repertory selections, and extended runs. Despite the challenges faced by art-house theaters, Film Forum has remained successful for over 50 years, thanks to its unique programming, dedicated staff, and support from public funders, private donors, and members.
