Knoxville, TN
Once upon a time, in the glorious era before downloads and strip mall multiplexes, going to see a movie was a really memorable experience. Filmmakers and exhibitors built huge theatres near mythical places in which to show their own mythical creations. Most of these 'movie palaces' have disappeared, victims of changing times and tastes. Only a few remain, and one of the grandest is still flourishing in Tennessee. Tennessee Crossroads visited our Official State Theatre, The Tennessee Theatre in Knoxville, TN.
