Overview

A nostalgic chronicle of a movie lover's misspent youth in a dark, run-down second run theater, once the proud centerpiece of the small suburban town of Milwaukie, Oregon. Cinema 69 is both an autobiography and an affectionate history of the theater & films which played there that had a lasting impact one viewer's life. This book is a must for any movie fan who grew up in the dark balconies of their neighborhood second run cinemas during the 70s and 80s, before home video began running them out of business.
