The Jackson used the elevated stadium section (I am refraining from using “balcony” before I am corrected)to make theatres 2 and 3, so except for the year iot must all be there.

I never knew the jackson was such a beautiful house. It’s shocking they have not carved up that main floor. Has anyone seen it recently, does it look the same?

They had a man in a kangaroo suit, need I say more LOL. Actually if you see stills from the some of the scenes it might have scared young kids because it looked so demented. The hall played a few AIP films around that time didn’t it? I remember seeing “Matter of Time” there also.

Does anyone remember these badly dubbed childrens matiness that were so popular in the 60’s and early 70’s? A lot of them were from Italy and Germany.

Does everyone remember Topo Gigio from the Ed Sullivan show? This is the only one to make it to the United States but over the years I think there have been six in Italy.
