Enzian Theater
Its table setting and dedication to independent film make for a totally unique movie-going experience.
1300 S Orlando Ave
Maitland, FL 32751-6415
Phone (407)629-0054
Cross streets
South Orlando Avenue and Magnolia Road 
The Scene
Not so much a theater, but a restaurant that shows movies. You sit at tables (four tiers have been set up to provide clear views) and are served food and drink by a seasoned and friendly waitstaff. There is no obligation to order anything, though the theater does have a full menu of gourmet food (some dishes are better than others) and a modest beer and wine list.

The Movies
An unflinching dedication to independent and art-house film. Woody Allen is about as mass-market as it gets.

The Perks
Home to the Florida Film Festival, a 10-day independent film-o-rama that screens nearly 100 films, as well as several smaller showcases and events, like fundraisers. A particularly popular event is the theater's autumnal Southeast Asian Film Festival, a weekend-long celebration of Asian visions and cultures.

 

Regal Winter Park Village 20
Art-deco sleekness, superb sight and sound and a central location in the city's hottest new shopping and dining district.
510 North Orlando Avenue (Highway 1792)
Winter Park, FL 32789-2935
Phone (407) 628-0035
The Scene
Spacious, art-deco surroundings, with a large neon-colored lobby separated into two by a huge concession stand. The place contains two wings, each with its share of large and mid-sized auditoriums. Stadium seating all around and Dolby digital sound.

The Movies
Primarily new releases, but it was also the only place in town you could catch acclaimed artier fare like Mike Hodge's "Croupier" and Mike Leigh's "Topsy Turvy."

The Perks
It's Winter Park Village location, one of the area's hottest new shopping and dining districts, makes after-movie plans a snap. Also, it's become O-Town's most-exciting and energized place to catch sneak previews and promotional screenings.
