"She's So Lovely"


It's uncertain what city we're supposed to be in but we end up on Broadway seeing the Rialto Theatre, 812 S. Broadway, in Nick Cassavetes' "She's So Lovely" (Miramax, 1997) with Sean Penn and Robin Wright. That's the marquee of the Orpheum down there on the far right.
 

Not sure who Erin Dignan is, but her retrospective is advertised on the front readerboard. On the end panel is Esther Williams in "Million Dollar Mermaid," the same film that was there for "The Mambo Kings" (1992).



Sean and Robin go dancing at the Tower Theatre, 802 S. Broadway. The theatre is used as a ballroom called the Suenolindo.



At at the boxoffice. 



"Siberian Mist -- make it a double." Sean Penn and Robin Wright dancing at the Suenolindo Ballroom.



A shot from above of the Tower as the Suenolindo. That's the Rialto Theatre over on the right.

See the Los Angeles Theatres pages on the Tower Theatre for a history of the 1927 vintage film palace along with hundreds of photos. The pages on the Rialto Theatre down the block detail its life from a 1917 film house to its current life as an Urban Outfitters store.
