I think Tower was on Glendon, on the east side of the street. about a half block before LeComte.

Good idea, but I got the same result. I think I must have angered the LAPL.

Nice to be reminded of this theater every once in a while. The property is completely built out, so you would never know that there was a drive-in there.

It appears to be office space judging by the 2008 photo.

“Water Horse – Legend of the Deep” was released in the United States on December 25, 2007.

Thanks, Ken. I knew I could count on you to fill me in.

kencmcintyre commented about Pacific 1-2-3 on Mar 22, 2008 at 11:38 am

I guess that’s a general question. I’ve always linked directly to the LAPL site, as far as I recall. If there was an exception, there must have been some specific reason.

kencmcintyre commented about Pacific 1-2-3 on Mar 22, 2008 at 11:19 am

OK, I’m judging. I linked directly to the LAPL site, as you did. Since we both posted the same link, I’d be curious to know what point you are trying to make.

Who was Count Urgell? Any ideas?

Is that a great supporting cast or what? Edward Arnold is a favorite of mine from the Frank Capra films.

Vokoban, the LAPL database is acting up again. When I click on article, the whole page disappears. Let me know if you’ve experienced the same. Thanks.

It could be a mistake. The almanacs are not 100% accurate.
