About Music & Film
The neighborhood movie palace was its own kind of magic — a grand lobby with gilded ceilings, an usher in a braided uniform guiding you down the carpeted aisle by torchlight.

Buttered popcorn and the faint whirr of the projector overhead turned an ordinary evening into something to remember all week.
