anyone know the address of this theater?

This theatre is a sister to the UA Pasadena. The UA Four Star was operated by Fox West Coast theatres during the 30’s thru the 40’s. After that United Artists theatres ran the house. During the 60’s it played many first run hits like “The Graduate”. When UA pulled out of the Four Star, Michell Bros. from San Francisco leased this house and the UA Inglewood for adult films. Just before the transfer to Michell Bros., UA pulled all the 70mm equipment and replaced it with 35mm. For about the next 10 years the Four Star would remain a adult house. During the the very late 70’s thru the late 80’s the Four Star ran 3rd run and Indian films. During the 90’s the Four Star ran 2nd run and classic films. During the 90’s the Four Star was re-equipped to run 70mm. The Norelco DP-70 projectors came from the old Fox Wilshire theatre down the street. The Fox Wilshire stopped playing movies in around 1977. During it’s last years as a theatre. It would run classic films on the Big Screen. Before the last transfer the DP-70 projectors would find a new home at the Warner Grand in San Pedro, Ca.. Today the Four Star is a Church. If you sat right in front of the theatre, you can see on the facade of the theatre the words and an art deco design. (Unity Artisty).
