Still the little is a nice place, just wish they'd shake up their offerings. --["Users/DamianKumor"]

	+ ------ + ''2011-06-23 00:26:03'' [[nbsp]] If I had to sum up my experience at the Little in one word, wonderful would be it. For some inexplicable reason I haven't made my way into this amazing theater in far too long. After a long streak of nothing but Regal and Cinemark outings watching a movie at the Little led to a truly refreshing night. First of all, their selection includes movies of a far higher caliber than mainstream cinemas. Secondly, their staff are the most friendly and courteous employees I've had the pleasure to run in to. Everything about this place is homely and comforting. Normally I probably wouldn't bother to write a review of a movie theater, but I'd love to see this place survive. Through being a faithful customer for as long as I'm in Rochester and spreading the word to others of this remarkable place, I hope to help it do just that. So next time you're thinking of going out for a movie, skip the crowds, the screaming children, the loud facades and atrocious atmosphere of chains and instead swing by the Little. I promise you'll not only enjoy the movie itself twice as much, but your whole night as well. --["Users/MrKates"]

	+ ------ + ''2009-06-03 12:14:25'' [[nbsp]] As a long time Little supporter, I've seen it go through a number of changes (new managers, renovations, 401k, etc.) as many Rochesterians have. I must say that their programming as of late has been rather disappointing. While this I'm sure has much to do with the current state of the economy and minions of Netflix subscribers, the little has inexplicably missed major independent and foreign premieres and has kept large studio films that are playing at numerous other locations for weeks on end. The Dryden, a film collection and restoration exhibition space, has probably shown more new films this year than the Little. This is disconcerting to me as a filmgoer -- I know I'm sounding off here, but does anyone have any opinions they'd like to share? The Little is truly a special place and a treasure in Rochester, but one that I feel is losing its sense of purpose and unique identity... --["Users/RochesterGuy"]
