Information for this tour was contributed by Roger Katz.

The Criterion Cinemas opened with five screens in 2004 in the old United Illuminating building which was erected in 1938. In 2006 two screens were added in an adjacent building. The Criterion is part of the Bow Tie Cinemas chain which was formerly the BS Moss circuit. The chain is still run by the Moss family and a mural inside the lobby shows the family and some of the theatres they have owned.
