Belcourt Theatre and the 'see foreign films in Music City' quip

The Belcourt Theatre is an independent cinema and cultural venue in the Hillsboro Village area at 2102 Belcourt Ave that programs art films, repertory screenings, and community events. Because Nashville is widely associated with country music, locals sometimes joke about catching an obscure foreign or classic film at the Belcourt as evidence the city has a diverse cultural scene. The theater is a long-established part of Nashville's film and arts community.
