I saw Robert Redford’s “The Natural” at the Stadium when it first came out in 1984.

On September 7, 2007, the Stadium hosted the premier of the film “You Must Be This Tall” about the history of the Rocky Point amusement park: View link

“Best Foot Forward” with Lucille Ball, June Allyson and Nancy Walker played at the Astor in August 1943. Here’s a pic of my Mom (on the left) and her friends in front of the WAAC booth with the Astor and the movie marquee visible to the right.

By the way, I spent the better part of my workday today reading all the messages that have been posted here the last six years. Thanks to everyone for sharing their memories and info.
