Well, you've read the notes, the notes were kooky, and now it is time for you to post until the kooky cows come home.

T.O.D.

It must be Christmas in March because I can’t get A CAROL CHRISTMAS out of the CD player in my car!!

Tom, when you asked:

Is the one at Hawk’s Prairie across the freeway from the HP restaurant?

Do you mean Meconi's? Then, yes, it's on the same street but on the other side of I-5.

Finally! The Court Jester at the Lido, the week of June 27th, 1956 - interestingly it also played at the Stadium and the Picfair, my other two nabes, but I'm not at all sure I saw it at those two theaters, which is odd to me.

~~~Some Really Strong Patented Most Excellent Vibes and Xylophones for BK for No Problems About Anything!!~~~

August 15, 1956 - as I knew I did, saw Lisbon at the Wiltern, with my full blown allergy attack. In the weird department, The Man Who Knew too Much played the crappy Picfair BEFORE the Lido, which is where I saw it. The week after the Picfair, it moved to the Lido but with Anything Goes as the second feature, whereas I know I saw it with Autumn Leaves. Let's jump to the next week. Aha - August 22, 1956 - The Man Who Knew Too Much and Autumn Leaves - the cover of Benjamin Kritzer

Whew!

Time for bed.

Have a good day, all!

July 29th, 1959 - Hercules at the Wiltern - I was there!

bk · « **Reply #16 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:12:16 AM »

August 19, 1959 - Some Like it Hot at the Stadium - unforgettable!

bk · « **Reply #17 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:14:01 AM »

August 26th, 1959 (actually, for me, August 29 matinee) - Horrors of the Black Museum at the Picfair. I ran from the theater.

bk · « **Reply #18 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:16:55 AM »

And monumentally - September 2, 1959, the week before school resumes - opening day at the Wiltern for me, noon show: North by Northwest.

bk · « **Reply #19 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:30:13 AM »

October 21, 1959 - after seeing North by Northwest three times at the Wiltern, it finally shows up at the Stadium - I've always thought the second feature was Sapphire, but it was, in fact, Room 43 with Diana Dors.

November 25 (I would have been there on the Friday evening the 27th) Anatomy of a Murder and The Scapegoat at the Stadium.

Also, Ben-Her opens at the Egyptian and in just a couple of weeks it will be Christmas vacation and I will insist we go.

bk · « **Reply #22 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:47:10 AM »

December 8, 1959 for my birthday - The Angry Red Planet at the Four Star in Cinemagic. I turn twelve.

bk · « **Reply #23 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:49:43 AM »

December 16, 1959 - Christmas vacation - I'm at the Wiltern with my turkey sandwich for the first show: Li'l Abner. I'll be back two or three more times that week.

bk · « **Reply #24 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:56:04 AM »

January 6, 1960 - Journey to the Center of the Earth at the Stadium - in stereo.

TCB · « **Reply #25 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:56:10 AM »

BK, no wonder you sleep until three o’clock!

TCB · « **Reply #26 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:57:04 AM »

I thought you weren’t going to obsess over that newspaper.

TCB · « **Reply #27 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:58:24 AM »

I never saw ANATOMY OF A MURDER. I have no idea why I missed it.

bk · « **Reply #28 on:** March 15, 2019, 02:59:45 AM »

January 25, 1960 - Scent of Mystery opens - I see it soon thereafter at the Ritz - interestingly, prior to that the Ritz, which had been a movie house forever, had been having live shows, including in December of 1959, The Billy Barnes Revue (direct from B'way where it had closed after a handful of performances) - purportedly with a full orchestra yet.

I loved JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH. I just watched again a few months ago.
