Ice Station Zebra correction


My brother informs we saw Ice Station Zebra at the Avalon Theatre which was on Kings Highway. I am sure he is correct, because my memory is very vague. I am not even sure why an 8 year old went to see a cold war spy drama, but I remember thinking it was cool. In fact I think I liked it better when I was a kid than I do now.

The Avalon is closed. It showed it's last film in 1980. It was never converted into a multi-plex, nor did it fall to the fate of showing XXX movies, like many first run houses did in the 70's and 80's. The building still stands with retail on the first level and office space on the second level.

I am not sure what I saw at the Graham...may have been those Batman serials I mentioned.
