I just noticed the genre challenge for January.  I missed out on that one, so here is a historical shot I took the other day of  "The Last Picture Show"  .... from the movie by the same name.  The book was written by Larry McMurtry, and this is in his hometown of Archer City.  He still lives there, and runs a bookstore.  The theater was abandoned for years, till the book and movie made it 'famous' (or 'infamous') again.  The wall just around the corner is mostly open, as is the ceiling, but there is still a stage, and they still set out chairs and have stage shows, weather permitting.   It was a movie theater  quite a few years ago.   My husband said that he and his siblings spent many great Saturday afternoons there going the picture show.
