Hi, Lost Memory! Love that nighttime photo of the Lafayette Theatre! What a beautiful marquee—how it glows at night! Thanks for posting the photo.
Wow!!
There were 600+ people in attendance for the 7:40pm Saturday night screening of Inglourious Basterds!! Much of the film was shot in a MOVIE PALACE! So what better place to see it!
I am glad so many people decided to say “NO” to the cold impersonal multi-plex and the New city “Shoebox"of a theatre and went to the old Lafayette!
Looking forward to the classic films series in September!!
Thanks, Peter and bolorkay.
The classic films will NOT resume until Sept.Lets see what the line up will be.Hopefully more classic films from the 30’s-50’s
Hi,
I know I must have a case of the summer “fidgets” but, with the exception of “Harry Potter” and “UP”, the summer fare seems to be a bit sparse so I’m wondering when anyone thinks the Fall Classic Film program at the Lafayette might be announced?
I’m assuming sometime next month?
Hi, Peter. Thanks. I have at least 3 independent movie palace theatres that I frequently patronize, two of which I hold annual memberships at:
A) The Coolidge Corner Theatre, Brookline, MA
B) Brattle Theatre, Cambridge, MA
(I hold memberships to both of the above-mentioned theatres)
C) Somerville Theatre, Somerville, MA (Davis Square)
This theatre, although it plays second-run films and has live performances, to boot, is also independent, and it’s only 8 dollars to get into an evening movie show. The Somerville Theatre, however, has no membership system.
Hi MPol sorry to hear that you are not close to the Lafayette. I hope you have a nice independent cinema near you VS a GIANT SOULLESS MULTI-PLEX!
The Lafayette Theatre looks like a fabulous theatre! Unfortunately, since I live six hours away, and don’t know anybody out in that general area, I’m not able to make the six-hour trip for any movies, regardless of the time of day or evening.
Correction the times for Harry Potter are 1:15pm 4:30pm and 7:45pm Wed-Sunday 16th-20th.
Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince WILL open on Wednesday the 16th at Rockland’s ONLY MOvie Palace!
The first show stars at 1:30pm! There is a mid afternoon show Saban Theatre:30pm and one evening show at 7:30pm. The schedule is the same for the rest of the week and the weekend!
Don’t forget Friday night it is Jeff Barker playing the Ben Hall Memorial Mighty Wurlitzer!!!
Thanks, Peter.
EXCELLENT PRINT and presentation of “BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDANCE KID”. I look forward to Lafayette’s Fall schedule.
No classic movies in the summer months,but don’t just come for the old movies. UP is the current first run attraction. It was THE BEST MOVIE OF THE YEAR IMO!
They don’t have a Summer Film season? Just curious.
How was the print for Ragging Bull? Did Phil Tisi hand out cards for people to fill out with regards to what films they want to see in the fall? Only one more to go for the spring season!
Not me, I haven’t been there since THE GREAT ESCAPE.
It was probably Phil Tisi, we look alike. In fact, many times on the street, people will stop me and say, “You’re Phil Tisi, aren’t you?”
EXCELLENT Presentation of “Annie Hall” yesterday….the curtain is fixed….excellent print and presentation..
bolorkay –
I am not involved with the Lafayette’s series. I do not believe that would have been Bob Furmanek at today’s show.
Dear Lafayette Folk,
Just a note of thanks to all at the Lafayette for the great program this morning! It’s always great to see just about any Woody Allen film on the big screen, but “Annie Hall” certainly tops my list of favorites. Very nice print, as well… those New York skylines…. nobody films them like Gordon Willis.(I believe.)
I was very glad to hear from the host at today’s show (was that Mr. Furmanek ?) that the Lafayette film festival will be returning in the fall and that next week the audience will be asked to present film suggestions for the fall season.
As I am probably unable to make next week’s show, I am wondering if there might be an alternate way for me to make my suggestions known to the folks who plan the festival? (e-mail ?)
Any thoughts, Mr. Furmanek? Mr. Apruzzese?
Very much looking forward to Butch and Sundance in two weeks and the new fall film season.
Thank You
Dear All,
Please try to keep your comments confined to issues related to exhibition and the Lafayette Theatre. This is not a “Rocky” / “Forest Gump” forum.
Thank you!

AlAlvarez have you seen “Network” buddy ???????
Because you are wrong
“Forrest Gump” is one of those movies that thinks just because it plays “Fortunate Son” or some other iconic song from a certain period, that they are recreating the period. What they are actually doing is just being lazy filmmakers.
I guess you have not been to the film forum lately because they do really cool and interesting festivals. They just had a con movie film festival, they are currently having a Tod Browning film festival.
It is a fact that TODAY “Marty” is a far better known film then “The Hospital.”
Thanks for correcting my mistake, I am happy to do the same for you.
IMO Forest Gump was a very good movie, not a masterpiece. Solid performance from Tom Hanks solid story excellent supporting cast.Good soundtrack. In my top 10 of films good for the entire family.
And I realize I just spoiled the ending of “Network” for anyone who hasn’t seen it. Sorry!
