I actually went to a movie there with my dad and brother back in the mid-80s.
Smallest commercial movie theatre I have ever been to - I think it had maybe 20 seats.
That's right - there were six theatres, all of them very small - the screens were probably not much larger than today's largest TVs. I always thought it was the very first Cineplex, but Wikipedia says that the first one was in Toronto. In any event, I drove by the building this afternoon and the original door is still there!
