3D Coaches Plaxton Paramount 3200 RJI 8608, having just came from parton. the driver stopped to let us out of the rosehill junction!
The Paramount Theatre on Oxford Street Manchester.
Built in 1930 and designed by Frank T. Verity and Samuel Beverley and opened on the 6th October 1930.
She was renamed The Odeon Theatre in 1940 after being obtained by Odeon Theatres Ltd in 1939.
She closed her doors in September 2004 due to competition from AMC Great Northern 16 which open close by at the end of 2001.
While I was taking this shot I noticed an old boy next to me with a tear in his eye. He told me how in 1940 he first meet the love of his wife there, they had gone there on there first date, and every year on there anniversary they would go there to see a film together. His wife died 5 years ago and even though it was no longer open every year on there anniversary or when he just feels lonely and missing his best friend he would go and sit out side and remember the day of his past and all the happy times. Then he looked at me and said I have not even got that now, they will build there offices and in a few years no one will remember The Paramount Theatre or care about the memory's that wear made there and just like me she will be forgotten.

I've been thinking about this photo at work today. For those of us who grew up in the town shown here this image is like an old family photo with beloved dead relatives. More touching to me than that is that during the forty-eight years this image has been no more than undesirable shadows on a film held by its envelope like an embryo within an egg, persons have been born loved, had children and died. Between it's exposures and successful printing whole lives have been lived. And I miss the dead.

American Cinema plays a starring role in the cultural life of the United States and the world. Since before the advent of “talking pictures,” Paramount Ranch has served as a setting for hundreds of cinematic productions.
Lights! Camera! Action!…In 1927, Paramount Pictures purchased 2,700 acres of the old Rancho Las Virgenes for use as a “movie ranch.” For 25 years, a veritable who’s who of Hollywood practiced their craft at Paramount Ranch including director Cecil B. Demille and actors Bob Hope, Gary Cooper and Claudette Colbert. The diverse landscape was the real star of the show. It offered film makers the freedom to create distant locales such as colonial Massachusetts in The Maid of Salem, ancient China in The Adventures of Marco Polo, a South Seas island in Ebb Tide (1937)and numerous western locations including San Francisco in Wells Fargo. The art of illusion was mastered on the landscape.
Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch…The golden era of movie making at Paramount Ranch came to an end when changes to the studio system prompted Paramount Pictures to sell the ranch. Paramount Ranch found renewed life as a film location when William Hertz bought the southeast portion in 1953. An ardent fan of movie westerns, he built a permanent western town utilizing Paramount Pictures’ old prop storage sheds. As a result, television companies began producing westerns at the ranch such as The Cisco Kid and Dick Powell’s Zane Grey Theatre. William Hertz sold the property in 1955. The Paramount Racetrack opened a year later, and some considered it one of the most challenging in the U.S. Although it closed 18 months later, after three fatal accidents, the racetrack was featured in The Devil’s Hairpin, filmed in 1957. Most of the track still winds through the grasslands of the park.
Ride Off Into the Sunset…From 1957 to 1980, the ranch changed ownership several times, but filmmaking continued. After purchasing a portion of the original Paramount property in 1980, the National Park Service revitalized the old movie ranch. From 1992 to 1997, Paramount Ranch was used as the setting for the television show, Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman. Whether watching filming or exploring the area, experience the drama and grandeur of the Santa Monica Mountains.

The abandoned Liberty Paramount Theater in Youngstown, Ohio awaits demolition in this photo in July 2013. This 1918 landmark was allowed to deteriorate beyond repair following it's closing over thirty years ago.
this is the Paramount Theater - a really cool old "art deco" building that basically fell into ruin and was last known as a porno movie theater before being abandoned in 1976. Such a shame. This whole area however was very shady for many years (the former combat zone). I dont know much other history about the paramount - but Emerson college has just finished completely renovating the building and it is finally reopening TONIGHT!
There are a ton of other fantastic photos of this building on flickr - many of the newer photos have been done at night, showing all the new lights they have put in.
I did do a bit of processing on this one in lightroom - originally taken in raw and looked pretty flat. I tried to bring out the textures in the stone and the colors in the sign. also lightened up some shadows here and there.

If you watch the opening of any of the Indiana Jones movies, you'll see the Paramount Mountain logo fade into the first scene of the movie. In the case of "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade", the Paramount Pictures logo fades into this sandstone promontory at "Park Ave" in Arches National Park, Moab, Utah. On this day in Oct 1988, rock climbers ( see zoom ) were headed up the rock, while Mr Spielberg was attempting to shoot his opening scene, Park Rangers promptly told the climbers to get down ! These two days of shooting ended up on the cutting room floor anyway, as the second unit director, Frank Marshall, returned a couple of weeks later to reshoot the opening Paramount Mountain fade !

During its heyday, the Paramount Ranch doubled for Tombstone, Dodge City and Laredo. It’s been the Ozark Mountains, Albuquerque, New Mexico, Tom Sawyer's Missouri, 13th century China, colonial Salem and the island of Java. This street can also be seen in the first season of the HBO series, "Westworld."
