British Cinema in Hollywood?

As Hollywood holds title to “The Entertainment Capital of the World” I question why there are so very few cinemas left, especially on the Boulevard?

Certainly some remain but are closed eyesores, rotting away and it is my contention to get the Hollywood elite to join this campaign.

A small group of us are really keen to re-open one… not just to run any movies but films with a BRITISH theme to them.

Having held title to every position in several cinemas for about half a century, I have noted how well British films do at the box office. Also, visiting British artists and film festivals prevail.

There is a huge following of Americans who love all types of Brit flicks. The list of contenders for an Oscar this year is most impressive.

If you are interested in joining us in a 501©(3)non-profit venture, (cinema presentation the way it used to be!!!), let’s meet and discuss some already formulated plans.

I’m in Long Beach, Ca., “hot-to-trot” and willing to relocare!
