Book excerpt: This book explores the potential of U.S. movie theaters as an important national asset. Each of the 4,000 movie palaces constructed during Hollywood's Golden Age, as well as the countless smaller theaters modeled after the grander showcases, has a role to play in the life of today's cities. The first section of the book explores the social and economic history of the movie palace and the significance of the building phenomenon. Subjects such as the development of moving pictures, the marketing of them to the public, and the architectural style of movie palaces are examined. The leading theater architects are identified, and the decline of the large downtown theaters following World War II is discussed. The second part of the book consists of case studies, drawn from projects nationwide, which reflect the programming options for theater renaissance. Motivations for movie palace reuse are summarized into three situations: (1) a user needs a facility; (2) a facility needs a user; or (3) a city needs a redevelopment anchor. The third section of the book, which profiles the lessons of the second, includes planning guidelines for theater economic feasibility studies, organizational structures, program environments, and adaptive reuse and operating costs. Four areas of theater function are explored: audience, performance, technology, and management. The book concludes with an annotated 76-item list of resources (publications, audiovisual presentations, and organizations) helpful to those contemplating movie palace redevelopment. Many sources listed lead to further information in the form of newsletters, bibliographies, and other organizational publications. The book is abundantly illustrated with black and white photographs and architectural drawings. (GEA)

Book excerpt: Naylor believes that few buildings in America are as spectacular and marvelously original as movie theaters. But in many towns and cities some of these great theaters are lost forever, torn down or destroyed by neglect. In this book, Naylor recaptures the spirit of the old movie theaters, and shows where to find and see the hundreds that remain. He describes these architectural wonders in detail, providing evidence of why the picture palaces and movie houses of the past now share a treasured place in the national memory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These vintage and contemporary images of Baltimore movie palaces explore the changing face of Charm City with stories and commentary by filmmakers. Since the dawn of popular cinema, Baltimore has been home to hundreds of movie theaters, many of which became legendary monuments to popular culture. But by 2016, the number of cinemas had dwindled to only three. Many theaters have been boarded up, burned out, or repurposed. In this volume, Baltimore Sun photojournalist Amy Davis pairs vintage black-and-white images of downtown movie palaces and modest neighborhood theaters with her own contemporary color photos. Flickering Treasures delves into Baltimore’s cultural and cinematic history, from its troubling legacy of racial segregation to the technological changes that have shaped both American cities and the movie exhibition business. Images of Electric Park, the Century, the Hippodrome, and scores of other beloved venues are punctuated by stories and interviews, as well as commentary from celebrated Baltimore filmmakers Barry Levinson and John Waters. A map and timeline reveal the one-time presence of movie houses in every corner of the city, and fact boxes include the years of operation, address, architect, and seating capacity for each of the 72 theaters profiled, along with a brief description of each theater’s distinct character.
