The recently christened Cinespia Channel is the latest streaming outlet for watching some favorite classic films. Immediately available now on Amazon Prime, members have access to exploring hidden gems and well loved classics through the magic of viewing on demand.
Cinespia is a long established Los Angeles film society that screens classic films throughout the year to hundreds of thousands of audience members all over LA. With over 30 events per year, the organization hosts screenings under the stars at many iconic venues including The Hollywood Forever Cemetery and The Greek Theatre. They also produces private screenings, fundraisers, concerts, television and film premieres year-round outdoors and at the beautifully restored Art Deco movie palaces in the historic downtown theatre district. The upcoming 2021 season (presented by Amazon Studios) marks the 20th anniversary of the first and longest running outdoor screening series in Southern California.
There's nothing like watching a classic film in the great outdoors, especially in the summer. It's a unique experience that evokes a feeling of nostalgia for an idelic moment in small-town America that may or may not have existed in our childhood.
Add a blancket and a picnic and you've got the makings of a fantastic summer memory. Unfortunately, those magical moments have been placed on hold this year. The pandemic has imposed the necessity to think beyond "business as usual".

With everything from slumber party favorites to Hollywood masterpieces, visionary black cinema, and cherished childhood classics, Cinespia has curated gems and spellbinding must-sees that will bring some of that magic of th eold silver screen into your very home.
