I saw Fellini’s City of Women there. Beautiful theater.

Wow. Just came across this. I was an usher at the Olmos when I was in Jr. High, late 1950’s. Then I was an usher at the Texas and then the Majestic. Good times.

I remember working at the Olmos Theatre as an usher/chief usher 1970 to 1972. It was a nice old fashion theatre. Mr. Pedro was the manager and Santikos was the owner. His office was next door to the theatre. We always had to keep on our toes as he would drive by and look in to see if we were doint our jobs.

For a short time this house was a repertory cinema that showed a different movie every two or three days, and occasional first-run movies such as “A Wedding” (1978). I have vivid memories of seeing “The Ritz” (1976) and “Die Konsequenz” (1977), the latter a Wolfgang Petersen/Jürgen Prochnow movie.
