The Esquire was a one-screen theater that, by the time of its closing in 1981, was showing second run films. The interior was classy looking, with murals on the walls and a pretty good size screen. The last film I saw there was JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS, in early ‘81. My favorite movie experience in this theater was seeing SLEEPING BEAUTY in 1979. A great print in sharp focus and plenty of light hitting the screen. The last film shown here was THE SOUND OF MUSIC.
