Programming at the Michigan
Primarily, we present specialty cinema, including documentaries, independent, foreign, and classic films. Most of the films shown have won international acclaim. You will not see advertisements on your television for many of the films we offer: they tend to be targeted at true movie fans, who love and appreciate fine film. With only two screens and a desire to show an incredible variety of films, we are sometimes required to offer very short runs.
