This may be the theater in the twenties. The location is about right, and there appear to be movie posters in the window:

It’s hard to see the theater when you’re walking down Figueroa. The entrance is downstairs, and there is a lot of shrubbery obscuring the entrances. I suppose it’s more visible if you’re staying in the hotel. I’m surprised that this dismal place is still open a year and a half after my original posting.

What was going on?

Lorne Greene played Ava Gardner’s father. I think they were about five years apart. A classic.

I think it was the Monica first, then the Left Bank, then the Pussycat.

Very slow at this theater last night – few patrons visible.

Or the LA Times is wrong, but they seem to be pretty accurate.

There’s aren’t too many Ed Wood players around any more. One of his regular actresses died recently, I can’t recall her name.
