"Partners"

We get a look at the marquee of the Gordon Theatre, 614 N. La Brea Ave., in "Partners" (Paramount, 1982). Thanks to Eric Schaefer for spotting the theatre in the film and getting the screenshot. He notes: "The marquee connection is that both 'La Cage aux Folles II' and 'Partners' were written by Francis Veber."

The film, directed by James Burrows, stars Ryan O'Neal, John Hurt and Kenneth McMillan. The story involves a straight detective investigating murders of gay men.

The Gordon was later known as the Showcase after a Cineplex Odeon remodel. See the Los Angeles Theatres page on the Showcase Theatre for photos and history.
