1. The Movies
JordaanThis theater's historic Art Deco ambience takes visitors back to the 1920s, perfectly setting the stage for art-house, indie, and international flicks.
Haarlemmerdijk 159-163, Amsterdam, North Holland, 1013 KH, Netherlands020-638--6016 -
2. Cinecenter

3. De Uitkijk
LeidsepleinIn 1912, this small canalside "lookout," as its name means in Dutch, transformed from a store to a cinema, ranking it as the city's oldest. Red velvet seats and a small viewing balcony nod to its 1920s heyday, and in recent years the theater presents a diverse program of documentaries, kid flicks, Hollywood classics, and the odd mainstream film.

4. Kriterion
PlantageThis cinema has been run by students since the end of World War II and reflects their world-embracing tastes (especially during the late showings of cult films). The adjoining café is always buzzing with chatty humanities types, but that's not to say that the long-graduated among us are unwelcome.

6. Pathé Tuschinski
RembrandtpleinSince 1921, this eclectic Art Deco reverie has been the most dazzling place for moviegoers to escape from reality. Owned by the country's main movie distributor, the theater has six screens showing the latest Hollywood blockbusters and the occasional art-house number. Before the lights go out, enjoy the beautiful interior of the main room. Alternatively, head to nearby Pathé de Munt, the largest cinema in the city center. With 13 screens, showing the latest mainstream films, it's a typical blockbuster venue. Don't expect much charm, but there will be plenty of legroom, a state-of-the-art sound system, and huge screens. There are also sister theaters near Leidseplein (Pathé City) and in Zuid-Oost (Pathé Arena). All tickets can be booked via www.pathe.nl.

7. Rialto
De PijpAway from the madding crowds, this little old-worldly 1920s theater is noted for showing art-house cinema and more highbrow film classics. If you're looking to see a non-English language film, the best time to visit is on Monday evening when it's Expat Night and all subtitles are in English.

8. Studio K
Amsterdam-OostThe Amsterdam foundation Kriterion, which has been promoting student-run business ventures since World War II, has added yet another venue to its résumé. This two-screen theater shows not only art-house and foreign films, but with a club, theater, open stage, and a restaurant-bar, it's a multidisciplinarian's dream come true.
