In the 1960s the Paramount in Plainfield, NJ was operating as an “art house” showing foreign films. I remember it as having a balcony, and the entire interior, lobbies as well, was a fabulous Chinese rococco fantasy. It was demolished about 10 years later as I remember. I heard that someone had taken photos of the interior for a coffeetable book, but I don’t know if that was ever produced.
