, Executive Director. “Vidiots at the Eagle is a community space created by and for film lovers and filmmakers, and we welcome and encourage everyone who believes in our mission to join us as we work towards opening in Fall 2020.”

“We’re thrilled that Vidiots is moving into this next chapter and that our unique library of films will once again be made available to the public, especially in this era of streaming where choices are increasingly limited,” add Patty Polinger and Cathy Tauber, Vidiots Founders.

“Los Angeles should have more movie theaters, not fewer, and Vidiots has come to give all us punch drunk film lovers another place to call home where we can roam the racks,” said Reitman. “So grateful to be a small part of this evolving institution.” Vidiots has also partnered with The Drafthouse on programming initiatives at the Austin-based exhibitor’s Video Vortex. The downtown theater, which opened in July, currently sells Vidiots merch. Vidiots also has a year-long programming partnership with the Drafthouse and will kick off the series “Tales from the Video Store” which will include special guests, including filmmakers, critics, and friends of Vidiots and Alamo Drafthouse who will reminisce about the good ol’ days of video stores.

Upon its relaunch Vidiots is looking to partner with Art House Convergence, Film Independent, Los Angeles Film Critics Association, Outfest, Oxy Arts and the Occidental Media Arts & Culture Department, Sundance Institute, UCLA Film & Television Archive, Women in Film and Vidéothèque for programming.
