Upcoming event

• Hollywood Theatre's Movie Madness, 4320 S.E. Belmont St., has launched Movie Madness Presents, a line of classic, cult and overlooked public domain DVD titles. They include: "Bulldog Drummond Strikes Back"; "Seven Footprints to Satan"; "The Last Billionaire." Each are $8.

"In the streaming era, it may feel like we have every title in the world at our fingertips — but that couldn't be further from the truth," says Doug Whyte, Hollywood Theatre and Movie Madness executive director. "Our aim is to preserve and expand access to film and TV titles so that people can make their own choices about what to watch instead of letting algorithms choose for them."
