I too lived around the corner from the Cinema Guild and went there all the time while a student at Berkeley. The best part of my education at UC was in those cinemas. Fondly remember buying tickets from Pauline Kael at the ticket booth situated between the two storefronts and chatting with her about the selections. I still have many of the programs that she wrote and distributed every month with capsule reviews including two versions of her last program – one which her husband had had overprinted to black out her farewell note.
