They could show the old classics for cheap and make a killing off of food and drink.

Who wouldn't want to watch Casablanca and Gone with the Wind on the big screen again ?
They had some of the movies at the Rialto. I remember winning some kind of contest for a free ticket to the movie [I]Gone with the Wind. Or maybe it was a raffle.

They did show various older movies at movie festivals at the Old Mill Playhouse and the Rialto but when I was there at the theater there were usually very few people.

They did do better with the Polo Field Golf Cart movie showings.
