THIS IS A CINEMATIC MASTERPIECE, A GREAT MOVIE HOUSE SHOT.
CAPTURING IT HEAD ON LIKE THIS WOULD BE HARD FOR MOST PEOPLE. SOMEBODY WOULD DEFINITELY HAVE TO HOLD THE LADDER FOR ME. IF I LET MY MIND WANDER, I CAN IMAGINE SEEING THE OLD MOVIES THAT PLAYED HERE, STARTING WITH THE "THREE STOOGES" AND "MIRACLE ON 43RD STREET. THERE WAS, I AM SURE, JOHN WAYNE'S "SANDS OF IWO JIMA" AND MORE THAN A FEW OF THOSE FAMOUS HOLLYWOOD MUSICALS THEY STOPPED MAKING ALMOST FIFTY YEARS AGO LIKE"PICNIC", "SEVEN BRIDES FOR SEVEN BROTHERS" AND "THE KING AND I" AND OF COURSE, THE DISNEY CINDERELLA AND FANTASIA SPECIALS. THERE WAS "SHANE", A REALLY GOOD WESTERN,"NORTHWEST PASSAGE," A GREAT TRAIN MOVIE. THERE WAS "BELL, BOOK AND CANDLE" WITH THE SULTRY BLONDE, KIM NOVAK , THE WAR ROMANCE MOVIE "FROM HERE TO ETERNITY WITH DEBORAH KERR AND ROBERT MITCHUM? AND THERE WERE THE REAL CLASSICS LIKE "CASA BLANCA" AND A FEW WITH GLORIA SWANSON AND LOREET YOUNG, THE SIRENS OF THE SILVER SCREEN IN THE LATE 20S AND EARLY 30S, BEFORE MY TIME.
YOUR PICTURE SHOW PICTURE WITH ITS RETRO IMAGES CHALLENGED MY MIND TO RECALL A LOT OF FAVORITE OLD MOVIES. THE LIGHTS ON THE MARQUEE REMINDED ME OF MANY FRIDAY NIGHT DATES DURING THE LATE 50S. IT IS A MOST UPLIFTING PHOTOGRAPH. BY ROBERT L. HUFFSTUTTER
