I believe the first “art” film shown at the Garden was “Bitter Rice” about 1950-51, and prior to that it had shown mainstream second run films.

As I remember the Garden theater only ‘art’ films were shown there in 50’s. I remember films such as “the moon is blue” and “the five thousand fingers of Dr. T”.
The lobby was on the smallish side and had a plush feel to it.
