Cinema 23 Closes

May 17, 2010 at 7:48 am

CEDAR GROVE, NJ — Not being able to make it through the summer, Cinema 23 abruptly closed its doors last week.

 

According to MovieBuff82 on-line -

"This cinema opened on November 23, 1969. It died May 11, 2010. For 20+ years it showed movies in 70mm before showing 35mm movies. It was retrofitted on December 23, 1977 with Dolby Stereo 70mm for a rerelease of Star Wars, which was the most popular movie of that year. Clearview bought the theater in 1998 back when Cablevision was buying the chain. With Cablevision, its Optimum Rewards program allowed moviegoers to see a movie for free on Tuesday nights. The last day that this happened was the day before the theater closed down on May 12."

 

replies on-line: -

William - "The opening film was Woody Allen’s “Take the Money and Run” in 35mm on Nov. 23 1969."

 

Mark Edmunds - "I looked in the door tonight and see that they have started to ‘dismantle’ the place. The chrome mouth piece’s and ticket pass thru window’s of both box office windows have been removed, the lighted poster display frames in the lobby have been removed along with the candy/soda counters."
