Joe Elward There used to be this guy who would bring in his own grocery bag full of popcorn and fart like crazy during the whole movie. He totally ruined "Airport '77"

How cool. I saw "Love Story" there a million years ago and my brother actually rented a rooftop apartment there for a while, back in the early 70's.

At a wedding this weekend I met a man whose grandfather donated the land for Lagendorf Park. He knew the Catlow family and said that BCHS math teacher Olive Catlow was the same family. All this many years I've wondered and now I found out and got her fudge recipe in the same year! We all did lots of growing up in that theatre!

Oh my gosh,

It's so unbelievable how this theater looks like ours in Westclife, CO. There are just too many memories associated with the Catlow for me. It seems all of the older small towns have our theaters which live on today, which is really great.

Wow, blast from the past, I had forgotten... been so long. I live in River Falls, WI and we have our own "Catlow", the "Falls Theatre", and it is still up and running too. I just felt a huge wave of nostalgia...like a big chill

A funny clip from SNL. This is so true - we've had people complain that they can't understand the dialog during British films.

‎'Don' You Go Rounin' Roun to Re Ro' is a can't-miss British film, if you like movies you cannot understand.

Martha Mattes What a fantastic movie! If Colin Firth doesn't win the Oscar there's no justice in the Oscars. Geoffrey Rush and Helena Bonham Carter give terrific performances, too.

Best little movie house around! Saw ET years ago, My Big Fat Greek Wedding & many other movies here .... I would love it if they would consider running classic movies - such as It's A Wonderful Life, White Christmas, The Wizard of Oz, Gone with the Wind & so many others. The Pickwick Theatre in Park Ridge showed It's a Wonderful Life a couple of weeks back ... just a thought ~

many quality evenings walking down to the Catlow in downtown from my house on Hough Street ... that was when Baskin Robbins was still there! (1979-1983 or so)
