Do you have any idea whatsoever as to what might have become of those kung fu prints at Cine 42?
I only ask because I know that a few action track theaters wouldn’t return the prints to the distributors like they were supposed to.
I know that the Elmwood in RI didn’t and they got a lot of their kung fu movies from World Northal, same as Cine 42 if I remember correctly.
Must have some crazy memories working there!
Does anyone know what year the Elmwood finally closed down?
Unfortunately I was not yet alive during the Elmwood’s glory days, but I do recall with great fondness whenever my grandfather would take me to see kung fu movies there during my summer vacations in Providence in the early 80’s!
I know. I know. It was kind of sketchy. Especially for a 12 year-old boy.
But great memories regardless.
Yes, gotta love it.
And right next door at Cine 42 you got a Bruce Li flick paired with Sonny Chiba’s Champion of Death.
What a time!
