A group of us saw Star Wars at the Northpark in it’s original run. Over the the run of the film (More than a year) we returned as a group to re-experience it more than 20 ( some of us think it was more like 30) times. The management and employees of the Northpark got to recognise us and other regulars and made us feal extra welcome. I remember one summer evening they brought all of us regulars cold drinks on the house.
I remember distinctly that we returned for a 1 year anniversary viewing of our first experience. I would br interested in knowing how many prints the Northpark used during that run because I don’t ever remember seeing a flaw.
As well as the Northpark I & II there was a Northpark III & IV. At one time Star Wars was running in all four of the theatre’s simultaneously to standing room only business.
AS state dabove expansion of the Northpark Mall ended the theatres run. From the outside it was just a white stucco box with no decoration but inside it was a treasure.
In 1977 I was 28 which makes me now 56 but I will never forget that first flyover of the Star Destroyer in the opening seen and how it drove me down in my seat.
