I remember working at the Valencia in 1953. I mentioned this in an earlier comment. Seeing that I changed my email address I had to re-apply. My twin brother Robert and I were ushers when Mr. “Z” was manager. I believe the very first movie I worked was either “I Love Melvin” with Debbie Reynolds and Donald O'Connor or “The Moulin Rouge”. What a great theatre! I still can remember the smell when you entered the theatre from that long lobby…it was part of the magic and the mystique. I was listening to Robert Redford on “The Actor’s Studio” and he was quite literate regarding the excitement one felt when you went to the movies. We have in a way too much to have those small experiences. Going to the “Music Hall” during Christmes bring back some of that charm.
