The Denver Post reports today that Neighborhood Flix, a regular among my rotation of local restaurants and places I frequent, has closed its doors. From the Post:

Since Neighborhood Flix opened its doors a year ago, it has had to fight against larger territorial movie chains for the fair opportunity to showcase first-run films,” she wrote. “In the film industry, the first few weekends of a film are the most lucrative.

“We’ve been working very hard to secure these opening films for our fans, and to help us bring in the business we need to keep our doors open. Yet, we haven’t been successful due to the overwhelming influence, deep pockets and business practices of our competitors.”

Perhaps someone with an entrepreneurial spirit can tailor the establishment to be more financially viable. This is a unique place in a wonderful neighborhood, and its quite sad to see it gone so soon. They’re a close neighbor, and I’ll miss their contribution to the community.

If you’re reading this and consider yourself that someone check out my article and review written in the past year to see what a wonderful place this is. Or was. Or could be again…

In the meantime support your local businesses. Or you may lose them. Sigh.
