with regards to the note above about american graffiti being among the first 4 movies shown at the colorado 4 —– the theatres opened on 6/30/73, with the day of the jackal and the man who loved cat dancing. camelot and charlotte’s web were added on 7/27/73. american graffiti had a sneak preview on 8/8/73 and began its regular engagement on 8/15/73. while american graffiti wasn’t part of the theatres' original line-up, it was officially the 5th movie shown at the colorado 4.

i am putting together a series of books on the history of the denver area’s drive-ins and indoor theatres – including several booking histories. if anyone has any questions on the subject, please feel free to contact me at . i’ll be happy to share my research with you. sincerely – kenneth mitchell

Unfortunately, my memory of the Colorado 4 was from the mid-80s and sitting in the theater and seeing a swarm of bugs crawling all over the wall. My date and I got up and went out to the lobby to complain and we received coupons for free tickets (which we used at a different theater; there was no way I was going back).

Saw a ton of movies here back in the 70’s and 80’s. Distinctly remember that big entrance arch because it faced West and if you went to see something in one of the theaters on the East side in the late afternoon the sun would come streaming in like a spotlight and shine on the screen through the space between the doors. Brilliant Design!! They finally jerry-rigged these ridiculous curtains they set up in front the doors, but I always avoided going here at certain times of the day.
