It was cool.And I would go to Dewey’s and get a dog in a bread roll.You did not have the fear that you would have today doing that .Today my Dad or I could do that.I remember Hatari played at the Stanton. 1962 ! John Wayne and Red Buttons came to the Stanton! I saw them! The Duke How Cool Is That ! I wish I would have saved all the movie poster my dad would bring home . OH The good old 1950’s and 60’s
