Red Bank, NJ's arthouse bank: how SPE & others help it thrive

The Asbury Park Press celebrates an arthouse with powerful pals: "The Red Bank Art Cinema, 36 White St., opened 10 years ago this month, with a strict policy of only art, independent and foreign film programming.... Many of the movies come from Sony Pictures Classics, whose faith in the Red Bank theater has been almost heroic. Tom Bernard, co-president of the company and a Middletown resident, has made sure his company's films play at the arts cinema, occasionally only a week or two after their New York openings... "Our movies have done tremendous business… the highest in the state," Bernard said. "[It's] part of an elite group nationwide. The outreach marketing that Clearview has done and its commitment to the art policy is the most important element in the theater's success."
