History of the Movie Business in Seattle, Tuesday at the Senior Center

Saturday, July 18, 2015

Join Bud Saffle, “Mr. Movie Man”, as he takes you from the Silent Movie Era to the more modern day movies.

He is a retired movie exhibitionist, which means that he would take Hollywood movies from the distributors and sell them to regional theatre chains.

He did this for “Singin’ in the Rain and lots of oldies and goodies that you all should know.

He worked in downtown Seattle on “studio row”, which, ages ago, housed outposts of MGM, Universal, etc.  Some of the buildings are still there but the studios have long since closed their offices.

Tuesday, July 21, 10:30—11:30am, Shoreline - Lake Forest Park Senior Center, 18560 1st Ave. NE #1, Shoreline, WA 98155, 206-365-1536.
