Go to “REMEMBERING PLITT THEATRES” on Facebook for more Plitt info.
In 1956 it was the HUNTERDON drive-in parking 300 cars and owned by Brant Theatres.
I know Jerry was shocked when R rated movies were booked in.
Why didn’t the Ushers ask the manager to key to the cash box on the pinball machine.like we did.strange.
that is not a bad deal, if they keep the theatre up,wonder if it is dark now.
Need a little bit more history, surely some locals can add something,this is pretty good size city.
Carmike has never impressed me as a theatre chain,what few theatres i have seen that they run are dumps and mainly in smaller towns.
anyone that worked for PLITT THEATRES on facebook there is “Remembering Plitt Theatres” anyone can join the group.
