While in High school at R.E.Lee, I worked as one of the cashiers from 1964 until summer 1966. I remember the longest lines of people came for “The Greatest Story Ever Told,” but stayed away from movies like the Pawnbroker.“ I learned a lot about film making from seeing so many movies. I dated the projectionist at that time, who went on to become a big real estate developer in WDC. And yep, it did have 900 seats when it opened. I saved all the money I made there and eventually got the projection to drive me to St. Louis, from where I flew out to LA.
