Wait a minute. I’m confused. I thought that this was about the Picwood Theater, at Pico and Westwood. Curious—Picwood does not seem to be listed on theaters in the database.
I saw the movie WOLFEN at the Picwood when it first came out. The Picwood was a first run theater, showing 70mm films, as WOLFEN was. The seating was kind of annoying, your ass would sink into the reclined seats: the seat separated from the backing.
This spot is not a shopping mall at the corner of Pico and Westwood, just down the street from 20th Century Fox Studios.
I was in this theater (the biggest) as late as circa 1996 or 1997. I think the last film I saw there was AIR FORCE ONE. The big theater was still a 60 foot wide screen, with row widths in excess of 40 seats. I estimated that it sat about 900 people. At least then the big theater was still rather intact and not “split” as someone claims. The extra theaters were added around the big one. I’d like more clarity. I’ve seen in addition, STAR WARS and EMPIRE STRIKES BACK special editions, INDEPENDENCE DAY, THE RIGHT STUFF, BLUE THUNDER, KRULL, 2010 at the big Hastings over the years.
