ATLANTA -- Atlanta's The Plaza Theatre is included on a Men's Journal list of "The Top 20 Movie Theaters in The World."

Men's Journal says the number of theaters seriously dedicated to movie-watching is small. "We scoured the globe and came up with theaters that shun texting, revere great film, and will even serve you a cocktail," the magazine said.

The Plaza Theatre is at 1049 Ponce De Leon Ave NE, Atlanta, Ga. 30306

Men's Journal says of The Plaza Theatre, "Like many of the country's earliest movie palaces, the Plaza Theatre has gone through a series of incarnations in the 75 years since it opened, from an Art Deco gem in the 1930s to a 1970s porn palace to a restored repertory theater in the 1990s. In 2012, The Plaza – Atlanta's oldest continuously operating cinema – was purchased by a new owner, who has since reverted its programming back to a nice mix of new indie films, contemporary classics, and regular midnight screenings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show."
