Located off of Winchester Boulevard in San Jose (near the Winchester Mystery House) is the 1960's era Century 21 Cinemas. With its distinct dome shaped buildings, the Century 21 reflects back to the era when Cinedome types of theatre were more common and a sought after place to go to take in a good movie. 07-08
