Great thread, mikef6 !
My family moved around a lot when I was young, and unfortunately I can't find (or in some cases remember) movie theaters. Arizona, California, Montana, Colorado, Texas -- you name it; too many homes for any kid to endure.
But here's one I do remember and love, because we actually spent one whole year in this town: Ponca City, Oklahoma.
This beauty was built in 1927, has been put on the historical register, and is still operating today, playing films and doing live productions as well. I especially remember seeing Old Yeller there.
I remember seeing films in other places, too, but I can't find images of them. Especially drive-ins, which, alas, are no more.
Your pictures of the L.A. theaters are so familiar to me and bring back tons of memories (not childhood, of course). Love them! Thanks. (I was so disappointed when the La Reina was turned into a bookstore! I saw many fine movies there.)
