Here's the Mann Westwood Theatre. For a while, the Westwood and
the Avco were the main "multiplexes" in Westwood Village (not
including the UA Cinema Center a few blocks away).
UPDATE 01/03 : The Mann Westwood is gone and
a Whole Foods is about to open in its place. The original structure is
still there, it's just been renovated. Many thanks to Chad Jones for update. 01-03

Speaking of the Avco, here's the AVCO Theatre off Wilshire, near
to the former location of Ships Westwood.
Mann Plaza Theatre

The Mann Plaza is not quite the spacious movie house that the
Village, Bruin, or National are. But, especially pre-90's, this was considered
one of the plush Westwood Village theatres.
UA Theatre

Here's the UA Theatres in Westwood Village. A rather plain looking
front facade greets the excited movie goer.
UPDATE 1/03 : The UA Westwood is also closed
and Sav-on wants to put a store there. However, there is opposition to
the zoning change required. Many thanks to Chad Jones
for update.
Crest Theatre

The Crest Theatre in Westwood is a fantastic looking deco-like
neon theatre, which was renovated to the Crest sometime in the late 80's
or early 90's.

A trip to the newly redone Westwood Village usually includes a
walk through the shopping area, a stop at a coffee shop, a quick jaunt
over for a look at CDs at one of the numerous record stores, and a visit
to one of Westwood's historic theatres. From the Fox Village to the Crest,
Westwood is still home to some of the best and most spacious theatres
in the area. And, as an added bonus, visitors can find a good eatery nearby
just about all of Westwood's theatres.
