The Warner Theatre in Torrington, CT returned to playing movies with the Connecticut premiere of the movie “Flyboys”. Screened on August 26, 2006 to a sold out audience.
Vintage automobile lined the street outside the theatre. A restored WWI German Fokker was onstage for all to see. Opening the night, The Northwest Connecticut Military Honor Guard performed a bagpipe ceremony. Following this, Governor Rell addressed the audience. The director, Tony Bill, also spoke before the movie was shown. He then treated the audience to a Q&A after the movie. A great night in a great theatre!
I’m not sure what the future plans for screening movies at the Warner will be. Obviously, I hope this is isn’t the last. The last web link hints that it won’t.
