“The Sound of Music†and “Doctor Zhivago†had Fresno premieres at the Warnor’s Theatre in 70mm and “Oliver†opened at the Towne Cinema (formerly Sequoia) both downtown theatres.
I remember viewing “Ryan’s Daughter†(70mm), “Nicholas and Alexandra†and “Thoroughly Modern Millie†at the Country Squire. “Jaws†played to packed houses for months. The theatre had a huge screen and great sound.
At one time the Warnor’s, Hardy’s, Towne Cinema and Country Squire were operated by Trans-Beacon Theatres.
I was visiting Seattle several years ago and couldn’t wait to view a film at the Cinerama. The pic was “Lord of the Rings” and what a presentation. A huge screen, flawless projection and incrediable sound. We have nothing like this in SF. The Cinerama is the best!
