Saw a Jerry Lewis film there as a kid with a cross-town, but was way out of my territory so I didn’t ever go back…I don’t think.

There are some excellent photos of the exterior of the Inglewood Theatre at the Metro Archives in Green Hills. The theatre, at least on the outside, bore no resemblance to either the Belle Meade or the Melrose. Rather, it was more of that futuristic googly design that was popular in the 1950s through the early 1960s, very unique and very exciting!

I have no idea if Crescent built The Inglewood and have lately begun to doubt my earlier claim that the theatre was a “triplet” to the Belle Meade and the Melrose. My memory may be cloudy on that subject but it is still possible. I don’t know where the Inglewood Lanes were.

Was this near the Inglewood bowling lanes and was it build by crescent?

The Inglewood was designed to look like the Belle Meade Theatre and Melrose Theatre. They all had the same exterior design. I was a teenager in the 60s and saw several films there, including “Bullitt” and “The Love Bug.” In the 1970s, the Inglewood became Joywood Salvage and sold used appliances. It was demolished and an Eckerd Drugs now stands on the spot.
