ALT AWARDS
Welcome to the ALT AWARDS, Tomorrow Theater’s annual celebration of the films that mattered most in 2025–to us. These aren’t the categories you’ll find at any respectable awards ceremony. No Best Picture. No Best Director. No orchestral playoff music.
Instead, the ALT AWARDS honor the achievements that actually define a movie year: the sleaze, the chaos, the emotional devastation, the questionable wig work, and the feelings you can’t quite name but absolutely understand.
If you know, you know.

Train Dreams x Movie Book Club
- Sun, Jan 25
Run Time: 102 min.
Tickets $15. Welcome to Movie Book Club—for anyone who loves movies, books, or simply having opinions about both. Hosted by author Margaret Malone, each session invites you to watch a literary adaptation and then stick around for a warm, lively, and lightly irreverent post-screening conversation. Bring your thoughts, your questions, your favorite passages, and your spiciest hot takes. Read the book if you want (gold star!). Or just show up and let the movie do the heavy lifting (also gold star!). Either way, you’ll leave with new ideas, new questions, and maybe a new favorite character to lovingly overanalyze. Our inaugural Movie Book Club features Train Dreams, adapted from Denis Johnson’s novella of the same name.
