One of my first jobs was here. I absolutely cherish the memory. I remember seeing Return of the Jedi here in 1983 on opening day in 70mm. I actually have home video of the place when it was still open. I will tranfer it to Youtube and post a link here. If I remember correctly, I have close up video of the “wall of fame” with the autographs and pictures of each star when they visited the theatre. If its true and the slabs are in storage, they need to be put on display somewhere. The Belcourt would be a great venue to display the wall of fame again.
short, albeit crappy PQ, video of back in the day at BMT. This was 1987ish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQkLx2joBzk
