World premiere!
I first saw the film with friends during this run. We couldn’t keep a secret.
Suspicion, 1941.
One year in the life of a French farm. An astonishingly beautiful movie. Can be seen on YouTube.
“Temptation” was a 1915 film with Geraldine Farrar.
A Newark trolley.
One of the great film noir movies, by Fritz Lang. Many theatres that played it put it at the bottom of a double bill with just the title and no display ad.
The address should be given as 375 Atwells Avenue.
April 29, 1982 obit.
Name given as “La Serena” instead of “La Sirena.”
Sometimes given as LA SERENA in ads and articles.
Original title: Les mauvais coups.
At four theatres, with separate supporting features.
November 24, 1941
Portuguese-speaking communities were abundant in those theatre areas.
March 1983.
From a 1941 photo.
From full article in the Providence Evening Bulletin on that date.
A photo of Jack Toohey in the ruins of the half-demolished Carlton can be found on this page.
October 28, 1915.
I watched it and it’s excellent.
“Il Mulatto”
This was a subsequent run. First shown at the Providence Opera House.
Important part of this hall’s history.
Can be seen complete on YouTube with English subtitles. 72 minutes.
