Right – George Mansour. Having always lived in walking cities, I’ve never thought of 30-45 minutes as much of a hike, but I can see your point.

I think that’s George Mansour, who at various times programmed the Nickelodeon, Loews, and the Boston Film Festival.

The locations aren’t that near each other. I’d estimate that a walk between them would take at least a half hour, maybe even 45 minutes.

During a conversation I had with him in late 1996, legendary New England-area film booker and consultant Frank Mansour mentioned that the Kendall Square Cinemas were an indirect replacement for the Orson Welles Cinemas, which were located relatively nearby on Massachusetts Avenue between Central and Harvard Squares until they were destroyed by a fire in May of ‘86.
