Rialto Cinema Reopens In Brownfield Aims To Expand
Brownfield welcomes the Rialto Cinema at 408 W. Main after renovations reopen seven days a week under Theater Manager Jim Yates and founder Mitch Word. The former Rialto, built in 1925 and renovated in 1997, now screens current releases about two weeks after debut, with plans to revive the Regal Theatre once roof repairs and renovations are complete. Local leaders say the move provides family entertainment, boosts activity, and could lead to multiple showings once the Regal reopens.
