I’m sorry that I missed you! But I just got an email from JetBlue trying to lure me northward for $49 and I have 12 vacation days burning a hole in my pocket… I just might have to make a trip up your way to stalk your family in person!
i saw the opening night of “the fugitive” at the coronet. i hadn’t been planning on it, but since i lived only 3 blocks away i decided at the last minute to join the huge line. i sat down front, as you did, and damn but i thought that train was gonna land in my lap!!
One of my happier movie palace memories is the night I went to see The Wizard of Oz at the Dome. It was worth standing in line with all the Judy Garland fanatics just to see a film that was made to be seen in that environment actually IN that environment. It was wonderful. A couple of months ago we went to see a double feature at the Egyptian during their Noir Festival. THAT was lovely.
Score one for the small towns. We actually still have an old theater here. Although it is ran by volunteers and they only show older movies. It still rocks to be able to go there on Halloween and see old horror flicks on that big screen!
