I REMEMBER GOING TO SEE THE WORLD PREMERE OF “SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT” AT THIS THEATRE. THEY HAD THE SEARCH LIGHTS ROAMING THE SKY. ON HAND WERE SOME OF THE STARS, BURT REYNOLDS AND HIS CREW WERE THERE. HE EVEN BROUGHT SOME STARS THAT WERE NOT IN THE MOVIE. ANYWAY THATS MY STORY AND I AM STICKING TO IT.

The Tara was originally part of the Loews Theater Group which also ran the Grand (Home of Gone With The Wind)and the Twelve Oaks Theater. When Loew’s left, the Tara was taken over by George Lefont, who used it to screen a mix selection of standard and art fair films. Loew had already twinned the original auditorium when George took over the property. George spilt one of the auditoriums and added a new one on the right.
