Raysson you got the movies right but the Cinema screens wrong. North Avenue Irregulars was in Cinema 1. Class of Miss McMichael was in Cinema 2. Every Which Way But Loose was in Cinema 3. The Inheritance was in Cinema 4. I remember this because the entrance to the theater area had them numbered left to right and that is the locations of the movies. I’m pretty sure Every Which Way But Loose was a last minute replacement which may explain the ad showing Slow Dancing as one of the movies for the Gala Opening then Every Which Way But Loose when it actually opened. Every Which Way But Loose was already playing at some other theaters when 4 Seasons Cinemas opened.
Every Which Way But Loose and North Avenue Irregulars were really busy. The other two not so much. Slow Dancing was shown but didn’t stay long.
I was the first Chief of Staff at this theatre and you have some of the facts wrong. The theatre opened in 1979 not 1976, I know this because I moved to Greensboro on January 19, 1979 to help open the theatre. I helped put the first movies on the marquee. It had snowed and was quite dangerous. I remember 3 of the first movies. North Avenue Irregulars, Class of Miss McMicheal, Every Which Way But Loose and I think Cinema 4 had George C. Scott’s “Hardcore”. Mr. Gray Jones was the manager. He passed away January 24th 2010. Rocky (I don’t remember his last name) was Mr. Jones' assistant manager.
