Amy, I missed the Bruce sighting, but heard all about it. My brush with fame was when Mickey Rooney saw a movie there. I guess you win! I do remember when Amadeus was there and you changed your name tag to Amydeus. Cute.
I just stumbled on this upon learning this cinema had been torn down. Tom Fischbach, I’m the Amy you refer to! :) I loved working at the cinema, too. Were you there when Bruce Springsteen came to Terminator late one night with the E-Street band? The cinema manager, I forget his name, LOVED Springsteen and he was so psyched. We all stayed late to get autographs. Fun memories.
May 18th, 1984 grand opening ad in photo section.
I worked at Clarkson 6 in 1984, the first summer it was open. It was a brand new theater with all new employees. It was the most enjoyable job I’ve ever had. One of those summers you wish would never end. Especially remember Peggy, Susan, and Amy. Sorry to hear it was torn down. State of the art at the time.
Oops…I meant THX…sorry for the dyslexic moment there…
I saw Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade in 70mm TXH at the Clarkson. It was the only time I went there. The main auditorium was pretty cool!!
Multiplex-happy installation that had one redeeming auditorium, the main one! That was very good, with 70mm and 6-track Dolby Stereo capabilities. Very fond memories of seeing “Amadeus” epecially in 1984. Also, “2010,” “Top Gun” and “The Hunt for Red October.” The remaining auditoriums were non-descript at best.
aka: Clarkson Square 6 Cine.
The Clarkson 6 Cine' has been leveled and in it’s location is now a pet store. I used to love going to that theater. It was a family tradition to fight the crowds and see a movie the day after Thanksgiving. Now we have the Galaxy 14 and they have just now built an AMC theater inside Chesterfield Mall.
Closing date was December 5th, 2004.
Heya Charles,
