WOW! This is amazing – Al and Bill, thank you so much. Al, I’ll definitely be writing to you at the bijou address to get that file. I’m sure this is a ton of work, but if anyone is able to recreate 2000 to the present, just so we have the history (more or less) complete, that’d be amazing — if we have the 1st 30+ years, we already have two-thirds of it! ;) Thanks again for all the work!

In honor of the closing, is there any chance AL ALVAREZ is out there and can repost his amazing list of every movie that ever played the Ziegfeld since it opened in 1969? And possibly update it to include the most recent years? Actually, the last I remember, I know it was a very complete list for the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s, but I’m not sure if he ever did up a complete list from 2000 and beyond.
In any case, that was such a valuable resource, and this thread is almost 200 pages long, so I can’t think of a better tribute in this sad last week of the theater’s existence as the last great movie showplace in New York City than to see that list once more.
