I remember going to the Madrid to see Walt Disney’s “Pinocchio” in the late 1940s with my parents. I can still see Jiminy Cricket on that screen in my minds eye. He was singing “When you wish upon a star”. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKh6XxYbbIc) Later when I was allowed to go to the show without adult supervision, I saw numerous Abbot and Costello flicks at the Madrid. I remember being so happy about the prospect of going to the show, I couldn’t contain my joy.
