I remember the Glenda Jackson movie playing there in 1973, but nothing after that. The Strand was nearby. There was a large burlesque house, name unknown, further down Virginia Avenue, by Morton’s Hotel.
In Uptown Dallas' West Village, the popular Magnolia Theater has a modern and streamlined art deco look and is an upscale version of a movie theater with luxe concession stands and a bar in the lobby. Screening only the most “sophisticated and intelligent” cinema, the Magnolia Theater has a knowledgable staff by employing local Dallas film-philes. One special perk, with the purchase of 2 regular movie tickets, visitors can drink a $10 bottle of wine in the theater.
