The Princess Cinema launched on March 19, 1973 with Michael Todd’s “Around the World in 80 Days.” In 1975, it switched to Spanish language cinema. In 1977, it switched to adult cinema.
Address was 527 13th Street West, directly across the street from the Capri. This page links to an undated picture of street paving that shows both theaters (with the Capri closed). The picture shows this theater’s name as the Princess Cinema; it’s unclear if the theater was ever anything more than a storefront porn house.
I could not find much about old Bradenton theaters on the web. I always had the impression that the town was big enough during the pre-multiplex era to support more than the few screens that have shown up, but I could be wrong.
