Louis Greenblatt

Hello, everyone.

I'm Hannah Greenblatt.

Louis Greenblatt was my father.

He started this theater in 1979.

When he took all the money, he saved editing wedding videos and bought a rundown bakery.

He turned it into a place where the community could watch all the movies that he loved.

And he loved this place more than words can describe.

And he put his heart and soul into it.

Tonight we were going to have a special guest, but unfortunately he had to cancel.

And I know that you all expected him to be here, and I don't know what to say.

I really wish I had more to say about my father, but I just have this movie theater.

Yes, the feature presentation will still be screened as planned.

Thank you so much for that.

My dad would have actually really appreciated that.

Oh, yes, ma'am, would you like to say something?

That's really sweet.

Thank you for sharing that.

Do you have any favorite screenings you remember seeing?

I really loved that one, too.

One time my dad took me to see The Mask, and he went on and on about how Jim Carrey was carrying on the tradition of physical comedy.
