Serviceable documentary regarding the Laemmele film chain in LA just prior and following the pandemic. Of additional interest to this family run movie chain is that they are related to the founders of Universal studios. Interesting, but goes on a tad longer than the curiosity lingers.

Sweet but kind of sluggish doc about the Laemmle theater chain (which I do love). There's something kind of sad about watching a movie called ""only in theaters""ù not in theater....
