I’ve seen some of my favorite movies at the Uptown and have been going there for more than 30 years. I saw “2001” in 1968, “Star Wars” (on opening day) in 1977, “The Right Stuff” in 1983, and the restored “Lawrence of Arabia” in 1987 (with David Lean, selected cast and crew in person). Somehow, the cinematic experience is always more intense and memorable in a grand theater. If I ever struck it rich, I’d buy the place and secure its place as a moviegoing treasure!
