Culturally, we tend to mourn theaters no longer there as well as other places associated with those neighborhoods, such as Niederstein’s. The place, with a history all its own, is gone forever. I wrote that many of us may have eaten at this restaurant “before or after screenings at the Arion, Ridgewood, Oasis…” etc. Maybe Lost Memory isn’t the only one who knows how to morph his multiple screen names!) (Sounds as if he could be related to another pedantic, personality-deprived imbecile we know all-too-well. Three days into his CT membership and Art Theatre already displays an all-wise and sarcastic mouth & keyboard. This drivel is enough to cause a true theatre historian to cringe.” “BrooklynJim could use a refresher course in remedial reading. ‘Tonino, if you go to the website’s Archives (under buses), you’ll see that the location was verified in their capsule summary. When I saw that it becameĪ Jamron Drug store when I moved back to Queens years later, I wasn’t surprised….I was just glad it lasted as long as it did. They had lobby cards in addition to the movie posters which you don’t see anymore. I also remember the infamous Caligula having quite a long run there.
Had an eclectic booking policy, as I remember quite a few softcore sex comedies playing there, mostly Italian stuff like Wifemistress and The Sensuous Nurse. Kramer, the Who’s The Kids Are Alright, Apocalypse Now, Breaking Away, Foxes & The Changeling there. I also saw Chapter Two, California Suite, Kramer vs.
They had a smoking and a non-smoking section! I remember a double feature of the corny Western comedy The Villain & It was pretty rundown, with red duct tape over the upholstered seats, but they charged $1.50 for kids and I was there pretty much every weekend. I was only 11 or so, but the theatre seemed gigantic to me at the time. in my pre-teen years, so the second-run Arion was my favorite theatre for quite a while.
