Movie copyright help please

Hay, Been away for a while but have a question and don't know where to start looking. Have opened a bar and restaurant and want to show late night old eclectic movies. Do I have to pay royalties to do this? Is there a clearing house to contact or something? Any other thoughts?

Thanks Phil

Thanks DEK, what are you saying, I seemed to miss the point.

You need to clear it, this company has license rights. If you get caught showing it without a license, big time fine. They may offer a year license where you can show any move they hold the rights to. Call and find out.
