I remember the Krim as the primier art house in Detroit in the 50s. The other 2 were Surf & Coronet. Later the Studio became the most important. AND GOD CREATED WOMAN may have been their biggest moneymaker. They showed all the Bardot movies. I think LA DOLCE VITA & BREATHLESS played here. I do remember I AM A CAMERA, THE NIGHT OF THE IGUANA, LES LIAISONS DANGEREUSES & Tyrone Guthrie’s film of his Stratford Ontario production of OEDIPUS REX. They put in a new stereo sound system for the re-release of FANTASIA. Also THE GIRL WITH THE GOLDEN EYES & VICTIM. Now & then they showed revivals. I remember THE BEAST WITH FIVE FINGERS & THE MASK OF DIMITRIOS.
