EXCERPT: Turns out that when men whined about being banned from the screenings, they had a legal point [...] The complaints were filed by Albany law professor Stephen Clark and an anonymous man. Clark, a gay lawyer specializing in sexual orientation and employment law, explained that the promotion of the screenings didn’t sit well with him. “I’m a specialist in anti-discrimination law, so I was fairly certain that this was not lawful,” he told MyStatesman. “If they were trying to do a gay-only ‘Brokeback Mountain,’ I would feel the same way.”

U.S. Code › Title 42 › Chapter 21 › Subchapter II › § 2000a specifically defines "place of public accommodation", for the purposes of illegal discrimination, to include "places of exhibition or entertainment."

Pretty clear cut.
