There is no commercial movie theater in central Trenton any more, but the Trenton Film Society fills the void with programming you won’t find anywhere else.
About 20 minutes up Rt. 1, the Institute for Advanced Study sponsors an exceptional series of events, mostly free to the public (though some require registration), typically 8-10 each month.
The society supports regular showings of movies during the year (usually at the Mill Hill Playhouse where Passage Theatre mounts its productions). The society also sponsors a number of film festivals: the Trenton Film Festival, the Not Quite Legal Festival (for teens), and a foreign festival.
