Why the name Lighthouse?

To be fair, the Lighthouse didn’t always screen to audiences of one. A short time after my experience there, I hear of (but did not attend) a sold out standing-room only screening of a 1960s documentary featuring Mike Wallace. It was a television documentary titled The Homosexuals and you can read about it here: https://www.advocate.com/politics/media/2012/04/09/mike-wallace-and-homosexuals

I actually attended a screening at this cinema. I was literally the only person in the audience, and Dennis was kind enough the screen the film for me. The film was “Vampira: About Sex, Death and Taxes.” You can find my review of the experience on IMDB http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114823/?ref_=nm_flmg_slf_12

The Lighthouse Cinema was owned and operated by Dennis Nyback. It was in business for less than one year; closing in the fall of 1996.
