Perfectly projected, great sound. I attended several showings. No other theatre in Providence came close to them, except the Elmwood in its days of greatness.
PROVIDENCE JOURNAL November 25, 2010:
“Apple Valley Cinema closed for back rent
Failure to pay back rent has resulted in the closing of the eight-screen Apple Valley Cinema in Smithfield, and there are no immediate plans to reopen the complex, said a lawyer representing the real-estate firm that owns the building.
“They were seriously behind in their rent,” said Providence lawyer Murray Gereboff. “It does not appear from everything that I know that the theater will be reopening.”
Gereboff represents the Koffler Group, which owns the Apple Valley Mall. He said the cinema operator, Apple Valley 8 Cinema, has been evicted following a District Court ruling. The cinema operator, he said, owes $136,212 in rent.
Efforts to reach Apple Valley 8 Cinema were unsuccessful. The phone to the theater has been disconnected."
