I wrote earlier today on Facebook surrounding the negative situation
the Wellsville N.Y. hometown theater is in. At the same time I contacted
the owners by email at their web page suggesting the following,
and I hope you do the same;
*bring back some older films for us seasoned folks...the great westerns,
mix it up with some comedy, Jack Benny, Stan and Ollie, the Three
Stooges...bring us back the great Sci Fi films of the sixties, the Birds,
Universal Monsters, War of the Worlds, the list goes on and on and on.
Tie the films maybe a couple of times a month with a dress-up look
alike contest with the film such as come - as Sherlock Holmes, etc, etc.
Older people will come back to the movie house to see these classics on
the big screen. Leave the Disney stuff and other younger targeted films
for other weekends..this idea is in operation around the country.
No one wants the Wellsville theatrer to go away... it's part of the tapestry
of Wellsville and Allegany County in New York.
Some times you just have to be creative at your venue in order to
survive.... let's hope this and other creative thinking can give them a
boost. Pass it on. SS
