The Barrymore Film Center (BFC), established by the Borough of Fort Lee, NJ, is a 250-seat cinema, film museum, and archive dedicated to the borough’s significant history as the birthplace of American film. Fort Lee is the first American film town where studios, including Universal (1912), FOX (1915), and Solax (1912) — the first studio built and operated by a woman, Alice Guy Blaché — were established.
The Friends of BFC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Memberships and charitable contributions represent a critical percentage of our annual income and help bridge the gap between revenue and operating expenses. The BFC relies on individuals, corporations, foundations, and governmental sources for funds to help the organization.
