Default Brooklyn Cinema To Be Restored
I've just heard that the old Kings Theater (US spelling) on Flatbush Ave is to be restored. The cinema was originally built in 1929 and had it's final screening in 1977. Barbara Streisand was once an usher there ! It's scheduled to be re-opened in 2015 and will be the largest indoor venue in Brooklyn !

I think this calls for an exorcism. Maybe she was a better usher than she is a singer or actress. Since this website attracts a clientele with excellent taste, I will have offended no one's sensibilities........ (I hope).

Post a lot more messages
The increase in rank is automatic. It's just based on the number of messages posted, it's not a reflection of the quality of them

Oh, this is bad news, and here I thought I had found God's approval. Even worse is the fact that the author of this thread has posted 26 times more than I and yet we have the same rank. I take it Field Marshall status requires posts in the millions, right?

Rin Tin Tin, I too am neither a fan of Ms. Streisand's acting or singing, but I have heard from more than one source that despite many personal quirks she is both a generous and a discreet contributor to worthy causes.
