When it was run by Stanley Warner it was very basic. There were no curtains, but they did have masking that operated manually from the side of the screen. The screen was in front of a large stage. Not sure when they used the stage. When SamEric took over they put curtains including along the side walls and the back.
I think whoever approved the sale of Kerasotes to AMC should be ashamed because AMC is slowly selling off the theaters that they purchased. Maybe we should do a write in campaign to whoever approves theser mergers. If anybody has any info please post it.
I missed there in Ashville. It was being shown in digital projection(35mm) at all three theaters that had it. I was in Europe and missed it to my disappoitment.

I just knew AMC would pull this crap. I hate this chain but not as much as I hate the Frank Theater chain who is the chain from hell. I was only in this theater once on a visit back to NYC and saw Jodi Foster in The Accused. I did always think the theater shuld have remained named the Tower East. MAybe Cinema City’s will take over sicne they operate the Paris and it is a single screen theater.
OMG Sinrise cinemas was a great independant chain for many years in Ft lauderdale. Now Frank theaters has taken them over. The are the low life of theater chains. This is really sad news.

I just saw your post from May. I rememebr the opening of the Hillsboro 8 in 1987. It was the most elegant theater in Tampa. They did play 2010 in 70mm and also The Mission and The Dresser on opening week for $1.00. The theater was elegant with purple drapes on the sides of the walls and over the screens of all 8 theaters. The curtains were one that rose up rather than side to side.
I went to HArrisburg 2 times between 1972 and 1974 anf there was a UA State theater right around the corner from the capital. By any chance is this the same theater. The first time I was there the theater had just closed the day before I got there and they were removing seats.
I Am glad another drive in is reopening. I woul dlike to suggest that you do something with the screen or add on to the exisitingone becuase to have a film that is in scope and have it off the screen and projected in the bushed sucks.
Thi is wonderful news.

I hope they are leaving hte original auditorium intact.

The showing I mentioned earlier were through Fathom events and they were charing $12.50.
Now if Raleigh and Durham NC could get new digital 70mm prints why couldn’t the famous Ziegfeld?

It conccerns me that they will clsoe the AMC Loews 72nd St in NYC becuase it is the only single screen house they operate there.

LAst year when we were in Prague they had reserved seating, but I wasn’t aware until someone came and said we had thier seats.
