La Filmothèque du Quartier Latin

Benoît Dhennin · Published 2026-08-11

Why go

The third cinema on Rue Champollion, alongside Le Champo and Reflet Médicis, and the most format-conscious of the three. It regularly programmes 3D screenings (Godard's Adieu au langage 3D, Hitchcock's Dial M for Murder 3D), 4K restorations and thematic retrospectives.

Best for

  • Rare-format screenings (3D, 4K restorations)
  • Large-scale thematic retrospectives
  • Classic and noir cinema on the big screen

What makes it distinctive

Its summer 2026 programme features a 90-film noir retrospective running from late July through August, including Vertigo, Rear Window, Double Indemnity, The Killing, The Godfather, Fargo, Zodiac and Memories of Murder — the single most significant classic-film event in Paris this summer.
