I loved this movie house. It held many wonderful memories for me, back in the seventies. I love the old films, and, the Regency delivered in a BIG way. I remember one summer, the MGM festival. WOW! The enjoyment of watching those musical classics on the Big screen, most often attended by enthusiastic dancers & singers & actors. The thunderous applause after each number. It sent chills to my spine, and it made it feel as if I was witnessing Astaire, Kelly & Garland IN PERSON!! I also remember one special evening when I just missed getting tickets to ( “North By Northwest” & “Thin Man” )…Me & my friends had to wait on line for several hours ( for the next show )..well, there was an old fashioned gin mill next door, we wound up taking turns running in and out. By the time I got into the theatre I was flying, and, had to struggle to stay awake! Funny!! I wish I could go back to those wonderful times..Johnny
