The Stanford Theatre, Palo Alto

Stanford Theater

The Stanford Theatre is a classical independent movie theater in Palo Alto, California. The theater features neo-classical Greek/Assyrian style architecture and generally screens films made between the 1920s and 1960s. Often an entire month is devoted to film festivals for various genres, directors, and actors, such as Alfred Hitchcock, Bette Davis, and Cary Grant. Designed by architects Weeks and Day, the theater was originally opened in 1925. In 1987 was purchased and restored by the David and Lucile Packard Foundation.
