Just a reminder that our theater will be dark this Saturday, since the whole silent film community will be converging on the #CastroTheatre for the San Francisco Silent Film Festival. See you there! (Our museum and gift shop will be open during the day, however). #SFSilent https://silentfilm.org/

Going to the the San Francisco Silent Film Festival's #LaurelAndHardy show this Saturday at the #CastroTheatre. I'll be wearing a fez (though I suspect that may not be that distinguishing). #SFSilent

so frustrating - just have it taken over by a nonprofit already, clearly APE doesn't respect the community: https://www.sfgate.com/local/article/castro-theatre-landmark-hearing-postponed-17880625.php

this APE plan sounds like bullshit #sanfrancisco #castrotheatre https://sfba.social/@Akrazia/109786448449002020

The management of the #CastroTheatre have posted updated plans with a high-tech movable floor that can be reconfigured between a traditional movie-theater rake and the terraces thing they want for live shows. They call it a win-win for everyone. Thoughts? (Nifty animation at least): https://www.castrotheatre.com/castro-theatre-preservation/

npr: new operator for castro theatre aims to remove seats and flatten the floor, rendering it useless for showing films. another planet entertainment, a concert organizer, also manages the bill graham civic auditorium. #CastroTheatre #castro #preservation

#SanFranciscoCinemas Project: December 3rd part 1

I watched a trio of Buster Keaton shorts at the #CastroTheatre as part of #ADayOfSilents put on by the San Francisco Silent Film Festival https://silentfilm.org/

This might have been my first time in the balcony at the Castro—the screen image and audio was quite good, and the ornamental features of the theatre are amazing.

The seats are very narrow, though, so less accommodating for American-sized patrons
