The Falmouth Theatre was on Main St. It closed in 1978 and is now Carpet Barn.

Anyone know what happened to the plans to renovate this? I can’t find anything on it since February of 2005.

First run single screen? Wow. In Connecticut that would be ZERO.

On the CinemaTour page I see Little Theatre, 506 Dekalb St. in Camden, SC. – looks like that is the one.

I don’t know why anyone would care about digital projection. I don’t think there are more than a handful of movies that come out digitally anyway. The projection when I saw No Country For Old Men here was clear and in focus with no dust or scratches on the print. I’m glad they do not have stadium seating – whoever invented that should be shot. I found the seats very comfortable even though they did not rock. I cannot stand seats with high backs, and these were the perfect size. I also parked for free nearly right across the street. My two complaints about the cinema were all the burned out bulbs in the marquee – that really irks me for some reason – and the horrible sound bleed-through from one auditorium to the next.

Maybe not in California, I guess, but it is pretty much everywhere else.

The Pike wasn’t way down there. It was like a block from the Hartford DI. I think there’s a supermarket there now.

What company will it be run by?

I just noticed yesterday that it was no longer on the BCG website. I guess they must have sold it, but to whom I know not.

I haven’t heard any rumors about ti reopening. They want WAY too much money in rent.

Gerry, I sent an email to the address I had for you, which might be old. You’ve got great photos of all these old theatres. Can I grab them from your Photobucket site and add them to the CinemaTour site with proper credit, of course, to you?

Any word on anything happening with this theatre? I think it would be great if the people who owned the Revival House in Westerly could do something with this building.

Roger Katz commented about Island Theatre on Dec 31, 2007 at 1:53 pm

According to the assessor’s database (which may not always be right) the building currently there was built in 1950. View link

This would make it to new to be the theatre, right?

Roger Katz commented about Island Cinemas 10 on Dec 31, 2007 at 12:36 pm

I think this is actually a renovation of the already-listed Holiday Cinemas in Middletown, not a new build.

Does this theatre building still exist?
