The Alden Theater closed in December 1968 and the last film there was called “Alaskan Wilderness”.I too was from East Falls and went to the matinees every Saturday afternoon.I attended Mifflin School and graduated 8th grade in 1970.Played in the rockgarden quite a bit as a kid.It was one of the ways to go home from school.The manager of the theater was Rube Shapiro.Great memories!
