“The UA” as my family called it and its rival, the Cinedome, were the only local multiplexes when I grew up in south Placer County. I saw lots of now-classic movies at the UA until two theaters opened in Roseville in the late 90’s.
Great theater! Die Hard 2 in THX, Terminator 2 in 70mm THX, Star Wars Special Editions, Batman Returns, Dances With Wolves. Braveheart test screening with Mel Gibson in the theater. Wasn’t going to win any awards for the design (and the location was terrible), but once the movie started in Auditorium 5, it was amazing.

The United Artists Greenback 6 was designed by San Francisco architect Daniel T. Uesugi, and was one of a number of six-screen projects he designed for UA in the 1980s. There were others in Pasadena, San Diego, and Chula Vista.
