From Wikipedia

Landmark Theatres is the largest art house movie theater chain in the United States. The chain shows mostly first run independent, foreign film, and restored classics though some Landmark theaters also show more mainstream movies too. They also occasionally show digital movies, on digital projectors in place at every theater. Their theaters are also known for selling gourmet concession stand offerings such as gourmet coffee, espresso drinks, fresh-baked goods, imported chocolate and candy offerings, and popcorn with real butter.

Landmark Theatres was founded in 1974 by theater owner Gary Meyer. The first theaters acquired by the chain were the UC Theater in Berkeley, California and the Nuart Theatre in Los Angeles. In the 1980s, Landmark acquired Santa Fe-based Movies, Inc. and Seattle-based Seven Gables. In the 1990s, Landmark Theatres was acquired by The Samuel Goldwyn Company. Landmark Theatres continued to grow throughout the 1990s and developed multiplex theatres of its own in San Francisco; Cambridge, Massachusetts; St. Louis; Chicago; New York City, and Indianapolis. Meyer sold out his interest in Landmark in 1995.

Today, Landmark Theatres operates 209 screens in 58 theatres in 14 states and the District of Columbia. It is owned by 2929 Entertainment.
