I moved to Knoxville in 1972, and I believe the Westown only had one screen when it opened. As I recall, the only other(non-X rated) walk-in theaters open in Knoxville at the time were the Capri on Kingston Pike, the Park on Magnolia, and the Tennessee and Riviera downtown on Gay Street. I only remember going there once, and I think it was THE WILD ROVERS with William Holden and Ryan O'Neal. I remeber the circular shape, but I don’t think it was ever Cinerama. It was definitely the newest, nicest indoor theater in Knoxville at the time.
