This is one of the original movie house gems of Bergen County and should not be missed by any true fan of old theaters. The Rialto closed in the late 80s for a number of years and was almost lost. It reopened in the 1990s as one of the only Indian-only film venues in the state. It was a niche audience but it allowed the theater to remain standing during dark times for old movie houses. It could have very well been turned into a CVS right around the same time the Ridgefield Park Loews opened up in the Meadowlands. A few years ago they closed again and went through a beautiful restoration to reopen as a single screen, independent film house.
