The Victory Theatre certainly stuck around later than 1991, as I remember seeing “Batman Returns” twice throughout its opening weekend in June of 1992. I can’t remember seeing anything else there throughout that summer, but I remember seeing “Unforgiven” and “Rapid Fire” on the bill in late August. All of my film-going memories after that take place at the neighboring Cinema Six, so it may have closed sometime in the fall of 1992.

This building was used as a nightclub called “The Attic”. This is a brief 2007 story about a fire that occurred there. Location is Cedar Street.

The Attic was one of the side clubs. The main chunk of the former cinema became a club called “Amigos,” which was a sad, sad affair. I only went in there once, because I didn’t want to pollute my memories of the place I’d cherished so much as a kid.
