I grew up in Watts. The Linda and the Large Theatres were on the same street 103rd. I went to both depending on what was playing. I was at that time in 5th, 6th grade. It was a wonderful time in my life. It was at the Largo that I saw the movie Shane with Alan Ladd. It was at that point in life I told myself if I ever had a son I would name him Shane. I couldn’t wait to repeat the line come back Shane. Well I did have a son and I did name him Shane and I have repeated that line many many times. I am now a Senior Citizen and that was a long long time ago

I grew up in Watts. The Largo was the theatre I could walk to. I can rember seeing the movie Shane. It was at that date in time 6th grade and going to 102nd Street school that I said to myself that if I ever had a son I would name him Shane. I couldn’t wait to repeat the line come back Shane. Well I did have a son and I did name him Shane and I have repeated that line many many times. Thanks for the picture it took me to another place in that that I will never forget. Thanks for the memories. I am now a Senior Citizen so it’s been a long long time ago. Also at that time there was another movie theatre in the area called the Linda theatre.
