Memories of Cape's Movie Theaters

My family and I were long-time residents of Cape Girardeau; born and raised. Since moving away, I have acquired radio, TV stations and built movie theaters in Paragould, AR and Kearney, NE. I was asked to write a commentary about the development of the Paragould Cinema 8. In the column, I recalled growing up in Cape Girardeau and attending the Esquire, Rialto, Broadway and Star-VU Drive-In.

I also own nearby "Bootheel" radio station in Kennett, Caruthersville and Portageville.

Feel free to edit, reject or publish. I just wanted to forward since it has some local connection.

Thank you,

William Pollack
