My mother once took me to the Paramount to see a “Planet of the Apes” Marathon. All five movies back to back. Does anyone remember that. We actually sat in that great balcony for all five movies. (Ok . we arrived late for the first show) Am I the only person who witnessed this. It was in the late 70’s. I was young so I kind of remember the lower level being somewhat cavernous. I once went to see a movie called Grizzly there. The theater was packed. I kind of remember there being support beams that obstructed some views of the screen. Am I correct?

That theater was a bandbox. I would have made one of the smallest theaters in a cineplex. Could it have had more than 100 seats in there? It is now where the current Entemanns bakery outlet. Last movie that I saw there was “Zombie”. I think it was a George Romero flix.
