The Jerry Lewis Cinema had a difficult time getting it’s footing because the 4-screen cinema across town had much more booking power. The Jerry Lewis did have a few successful multi-week runs with “Lovers and Other Strangers”, “Little Big Man”, “Airport 1979” and “Andromeda Strain” and a few John Wayne features including “Rio Lobo” and “Big Jake”. It was much more successful as a hardcore porn house with multi week sold-out runs of fare such as Deep Throat, The Devil & Miss Jones & Debbie Does Dallas.
