Sad news from Hollywood. Due to pandemic losses, Pacific and ArcLight
theaters, which includes the iconic Cinerama Dome on Sunset Blvd. will close
permanently. Having grown up in Los Angeles, we arrived
in July of 1963. The Dome opened in November, 1963 with the premiere of It's a
Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. We lived closeby and went down to see all the
hoopla.....I saw so many
movies there growing up and more recently, the American Film Institute would
have a yearly event where they show about 10 or 12 movies and had people
associated with the movie
in attendance discussing it. With so many movies to choose from, the last
time, I opted for Spartacus and Kirk Douglas was in attendance and was
wonderful. I took my then teenage
daughter as it was one of her favorite movies too from growing up with her
movie crazy Mom......I'm so sad to hear of it.....
