I-91 sat due west of the theater. While the screen faced east. There is no angle to see the screen from that direction.
It may have been possible to see the screen from across the river on Windsor Road in New Hampshire. Especially during the winter when the leaves were off the trees. That is still a good half-mile. But if you had binoculars.
You could see this theater’s screen from a small section of Interstate 91. Sometimes people would park on the side of the road when XXX films were being shown.
Actually the first film adaptation was in 1940 as per the below link:

Lil'i Abner was released in 1959.
Opened on 30th of September 1949 with “Li'l Abner” and “Frolics on Ice”
