The Cable Car was incorporated in 1976 by the Bilodeau brothers, who owned and operated<br />
several other movie theaters throughout Rhode Island. The story goes that when the<br />
Bilodeaus looked at the garage building, there was an old cable car that had been left behind,<br />
thus inspiring the name of the cinema. Emily Steffian and I bought the business<br />
from Albert Bilodeau in 2008 and renovated the space in 2010.<br />
In 2013 we launched a Kickstarter campaign and<br />
had over 750 donations to install a<br />
new DCP projector.<br />
