We see the RKO Hillstreet Theatre at 8th & Hill in "The 25th Man," a 28 minute Los Angeles Police Department video from 1962. It's on the USC Digital Library website, minus its sound. The theatre is playing "Cinderfella" with Jerry Lewis and Ed Wynn, a December 1960 release. Thanks to Noirish Los Angeles contributor Ethereal Reality for spotting finding the video for inclusion in his Noirish post #43128.
See the page about the RKO Hillstreet on the Los Angeles Theatres site for many photos of this 1922 vintage house designed by G. Albert Lansburgh for the Orpheum Circuit. It was demolished in 1965.
