I forgot – Cinema 35 is listed here on Cinema Treasures as “Paramus Picture Show.”

Yup. This theater sometimes had a mix of commercial and indie movies during its long run.

And nobody is answering you because here knows! Maybe it was installed the same year the arcade was.

When this theater opened it was the first in Paramus to show art house fare and the first ever indoor movie theater in Paramus, NJ.

Not sure why this says “twinned in March 1978.” This theater was never twinned.
