You are truely clueless. The William C. Cline you refer to was a movie booker that we used for many many years. After his untimely, and unexpected death, we found out he had been booking movies with the studios at one percentage, and charging us a different higher percentage in addition to his booking fee……. ie skimming…….For many many years he portrayed himself.if you want the true history of the pioneer theater come to Manteo, NC and I will fill you in, show you a movie house like you have never seen, and embarrass you regarding your arrogant ignorance regarding this theater, it’s history, and the movie industry in general. I am a 4th generation owner operator, and know things about which you speak that you have no idea of. If you want to come visit and become enlightened email me and we can talk some real truths. Until then speak of that which you know, no more and no less. A man who speaks of what he has heard is ignorant….no more….no less…..Buddy, Herbert A Creef III
