Messages left for Platinum Theatres were not returned Monday morning.

The theater is located at 250 S. M St. in Dinuba. Built in 2003, it features six screens with a total of 800 seats. Albert Frank Guerra of Hollister is listed as president and CEO of the company, according to paperwork filed with the state.

Platinum Theatres Dinuba 6 appears to be the only local movie theater to show NFL games on the big screen.

With the closure of UA Broadway Faire movie theater in Clovis reported by The Business Journal last week, movie theaters are struggling to recover from pandemic closures and a long-running decline in cinema goers.

Starting in 2019, AMC Entertainment Group announced a partnership with the NFL to show select football games on the big screen.
