This film was digitized from 8mm but it was worth getting these last views of the Alhambra Theater before she was demolished.
The Alhambra Theater was once known as the ‘Showplace of Sacramento’, where guest would enter the theater through a beautiful garden area with fountains. Sometime after the theater was built 31st was renamed Alhambra Boulevard after what was the grandest theatre in the capital city. The Alhambra Theatre was opened September 23, 1927 and its first show stared Rod LaRocque in “The Fighting Eagle”. The 1927 sound system was a Robert Morton unit 11 ranks organ.
The Alhambra Theatre was closed September 4, 1972. The movies “A Man For All Seasons” and “Nicholas and Alexandra” played a double feature. In 1973 what was without argument the grandest theater in Sacramento and a historical landmark was raised and a grand new Safeway grocery store took its place. The only thing left are a fountain and plaque in the parking lot or film like this.
