We all know a bit of a film fanatic — the type with an encyclopedic knowledge of pictures old and new. But when it comes to shopping for the best gifts for movie lovers, it can be hard to shop for someone who’s well-versed in the goings-on of cinema. You can never be certain if your favorite cinephile or aspiring filmmaker already owns that coveted collectible, that hard-to-find boxed set or every piece of movie memorabilia. Consider combining their interests outside of film to find the right gift. Are they a Marvel maven or a Star Wars superfan? There’s a perfect present for that. Are they a chef who’s obsessed with The Godfather? We’ve got you covered there, too.

So, here are more than 20 of the best gifts for the film fans in your life. From home theater essentials (such as tech and snacks) to books on Hollywood trailblazers and decor, check out our top picks below.

1. Nope x Jide Osifeso Orange Hoodie

Nope star Daniel Kaluuya introduced Jordan Peele to Nigeria-born, Brooklyn-based designer Jide Osifeso, who created a cool capsule inspired by the writer/director’s horror film. The collection comprises tees, hoodies and caps, including this orange sweatshirt that nods to a vintage The Scorpion King crew shirt worn by Kaluuya in the movie. To celebrate the collaboration (which was co-developed with Peele’s Monkeypaw production company and Nope producer Ian Cooper), Universal Pictures made a donation to the Compton Cowboys and the Compton Junior Equestrians.

2. Auditor of the Month Trophy Candle

If you can’t get your hands on a pair of hot dog finger gloves, fans of Everything Everywhere All at Once will still appreciate  this Auditor of the Month trophy candle fro the desk of Deirdre Beaubeirdre. This dryer sheet-scented candle is handmade from 100 percent beeswax by New York-based Joya.

3. Disney Pixar Turning Red *4Town T-Shirt

If Turning Red‘s fictional boy band has opened your giftee’s eyes and stolen their heart, then they’ll love this *4Town world tour tee, which is complete with 2002 concert dates. (Other designs and sizes are available, too.)

4. MasterClass Subscription

For the future filmmakers, there’s nothing quite like learning from the best. That’s exactly what a Masterclass subscription provides — a series of video lessons from some of the most accomplished professionals in Hollywood. Whether your giftee is inspired by award-winning directors such as Sofia Coppolla (or her father, Francis Ford Coppolla) and Martin Scorcese, or they want to master the quick writing of Aaron Sorkin, the inimitable storytelling of Werner Gerzog or the acting of Natalie Portman and Helen Mirren, there’s an ideal class to be found.

5. Kodak Luma 350 Portable Smart Projector

Kodak’s Luma 350 portable smart projector works both inside and outside easily and can display high-quality pictures up to 150 inches in Ultra HD. It also has streaming apps, Bluetooth, WiFi and HDMI and USB ports — making it convenient for recipients to watch films wherever they are on almost any device and streaming service.

6. Lego Infinity Gauntlet Kit

There are some cool Lego sets out there, and this Infinity Gauntlet building kit might be among the best gifts for Marvel superfans. The 590-piece set comes with colorful infinity stones and a display stand. The only problem is it can’t actually be worn — but at least it’ll look cool on your giftee’s shelf.

7. Vudu Gift Card

If you’re not sure what genre they’re into, play it safe with a gift card to Vudu, which lets them buy or rent some of the latest and soon-to-drop releases including Jurassic World: Dominion, Morbius and Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore and more. Plus, take 10 percent off gift card orders of $50 or more for a limited time with code VUDUAPR22.

8. The Corleone Family Cookbook by Liliana Battle and Stacey Tyzzer

The Corleones may not be best known for breaking bread, but this 208-page cookbook inspired by the fictional Mafia family at least lets The Godfather fans cook up delicious Italian fare. From ciabatta bread and classic meatballs to Clemenza’s Sunday sauce and that infamous “leave the gun” cannoli, there’s something for every film-loving foodie.

9. Roku Streambar Pro

Gift them a soundbar and a streaming device in one with the Roku Streambar Pro. Whether they’ve yet to upgrade to a smart TV or they want a more streamlined home theater setup, this two-in-one speaker lets giftees stream in HD, 4K and HDR and enjoy dynamic virtual surround sound in Dolby Audio. It’s perfect for cord cutters who want to access Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime Video, HBO Max, Peacock and other streaming accounts all in one easy-to-use interface, and it’s compatible with Apple’s Siri, Amazon’s Alexa and Google Assistant. The HDMI-ARC port and included cable makes it easy to set up, and you can go the extra mile and gift a Roku Wireless Subwoofer to complete their setup.

10. Columbia Pictures Film Noir Classics I

The first in a four-volume box set series, Columbia Pictures’ Film Noir Classics I lets movie buffs delve into some of the best black-and-white films, including The Big Heat, The Lineup, Murder by Contract, The Sniper and 5 Against the House.
