I don’t know what you mean by “true cinemascope” or “flat presentations” but I do know that the “screen” —if you can call it that— is a huge white concrete block wall. Sometimes the picture is too wide, and the left and right sides of the picture falls off and is projected onto the bushes. :) Does this help?

I’ve lived in Ocala at various times for over 15 years, and I love this Theater! It brings back so many memories as a child. :) My dad would take me and my sister every Saturday. Most of the time, we saw only the matinee because the late show was for adults. But every once-in-a-while he would let us stay for the late picture. :) That was always a treat! The food back then was pretty good too! I’d always get a hotdog. The theater went into a slump for awhile, and it changed hands a few times. I’d say that the new owners are doing a pretty good job right now and are playing all the current movies. :) I give them two thumbs up! ;)
