The building at 2102 Belcourt Ave. has held many names over the past century. It was Hillsboro Theatre when it first opened its doors as a silent film house in 1925, and in the decades since it has been known as Belcourt Cinema and Watkins-Belcourt, among other titles. These names reflect changes in ownership as well as changes in programming. The building has hosted not only films, plays and concerts — it was also the home of the Grand Ole Opry for a brief stretch in the mid-1930s.
