Vivid memory of seeing Byron Haskin’s THE NAKED JUNGLE (with Charlton Heston) at the Colonial sometime in 1954 at age 8. The imagery of the “Marabunta” – red killer ants – swarming over both land and people in lapidary Technicolor remains indelible.
The Boyd’s final feature was Minnelli’s THE SANDPIPER (with of Liz and Dick, of course) which I caught at a matinee on the theater’s last day of operation.
Both incarnations at that long ago site are sorely missed
