Thanks Dallas for the photo. This cinema looks like It was set up to be a D-150, Todd-AO or Cinerama type of curved screen but looks like they went with a semi flat regular screen. The stage and curtains are curved but the screen is not.
I think the screen looks kind of curved. Looks huge. Nice theatre too.
Oh-Like the waterfall style curtain. Hope it is still in use.
On this screen I saw Elizabeth Taylor in “Cleopatra”, “Cat Ballou”, the surf documentary “The Endless Summer”, “Ice Station Zebra” and many, many more. In the theater there were Halloween costume contests for the kids. I won two tickets to see the matinee showing of “Willie McBean and His Time Machine” for picking out the right color bean from a jar.I never left this theater not having been thoroughly entertained.
