Tlsloews,boy you are adding Theatres up like crazy. I think for awhile I might have been ahead of you,but now you have shot pass me,which is good,I would rather read a theatre managers writings than someone that never popped a trashbag full of popcorn.

This place was really a nice little theatre you walked downstairs like a big basement.Seated about 100 or less.Saw 2 Bruce Lee films there when the named was changed to Cinema 1. As the Art theatre it was surrounded by strip clubs until the city cleaned up lower Broad Street.

Coming next was"FASTEST GUITAR ALIVE" and “YOUR CHEATING HEART”

After that for Saturday night was “GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH” and"EVERYDAY IS A HOLIDAY".

Sept. 24 1967 it is a Sunday and the CINEMA DRIVE-In is playing “REDLINE 7000” and David Janssen in"WARNING SHOT" The next movies were “THE WAR WAGON” and “FLUFFY” what strange double feature.

I was at Augusta College when they booked “Tango” in the film series.The professor said there was two versions and the college was getting the"R",but when the CAPRI THEATRE downtown was raided they decided to pull it. I never did see it. Brando nude? not me. I bet “MIDNIGHT COWBOY” could get by with a PG-13 today. You know it was"X".

I would be willing to bet the VIKING had already stopped showing movies,with FLEA MARKET on the marquee.

Oh, Before the"M" rating it was S.M.A. {suggested for mature Audience} I have a one-sheet or two with that on it. {Probably,Something like Bonnie&Clyde}.

Mike Rogers commented about National Hills Theatre on Mar 18, 2010 at 1:16 am

TLSLOEWS,yes it means “M” mature. then it was changed to GP which really confused parents.{see PAINT YOUR WAGON,Daniel Village theatre} then PG,which made sense.When they got to PG-13, I think I was out of the theatre business.

Mike Rogers commented about Hilltop Drive-In on Mar 18, 2010 at 1:06 am

The opposite would be seeing “JEREMIAH JOHNSON” on the big screen outside.All the snow in that movie showed every crack in the Drive-in screen,drove someone like me nuts. Heck, i can spot a wad of gum on an indoor screen that no one with ever notices,Guess it comes from 7 years in the business.TLSLOEWS.remember CUE marks.Rookies today, have no idea what CUE marks are.
