In 2022, The Loft Cinema celebrates its Golden 50th Anniversary with a year-long series of classic films from 1972!   Each month, we’re showcasing a different film from The Loft’s birth year, presented on the big screen for that uniquely “Lofty” theatrical experience!   From international arthouse hits to Hollywood blockbusters, these are just some of the films that made audiences fall in love with the magic of the movies back in 1972, and The Loft Cinema was there to bring that magic to Southern…
