I saw Jaws at this cinema during its 1979 re-release and was hooked on films ever since. Although at this time, it had been duplexed, nevertheless it was a fantastic auditorium with what seemed to be a 1000 seats to me, a 6 year old at that time! It’s a shame the youth of today no longer have this sort of glorious filmgoing experience with the curtains opening upon the presentation and none of the barrage of commercials bombarding their psyches, much less even viewing the films themselves on 12 inch computer monitors. I say it is time we bring the Cinema Experience back to new generations!
