In the 1930’s some 80 million people a week went to the movies. That was 65% of the population. That has gone down markedly since 1965 for a variety of reasons. Today the average attendance is about 10 Million weekly.
I see. Kinda shocked by those numbers. Guess I was thinking mostly of my fathers stories, who grew up in western NC and a trip to a theater was a treat.
