west shore theater

Photobucket this is my favorite movie theater. it's pretty old with a big marquee on the front. there's only one screen so it's just a giant room inside. tickets are $3.50. they show two different movies a night. sometimes (like last time) they have really cool movies like best exotic marigold hotel. (we were the only people who weren't able to get senior citizen discounts at the snack bar but that movie was SO GOOD. i clapped at the end and hugged my friend jimmy because i was so excited. totally go see it.)

the theater is operated by a bunch of older folks. the snack lady is pretty harsh - she likes to keep things moving. don't dawdle with your soda selection. the screen itself is framed by velvet curtains. it's a whole experience.

in my daydreams recently, i've been thinking about owning an old theater like this. and running old classic movies. and serving ridiculous concoctions at the snack bar. and serving beer. or milkshakes. or both. and having quote-a-longs. and giving people discounts if they dress up. that would be the good life.
