There are a few places in the world that absolutely make me stop and smile or absolutely beam when I can visit them or show them to people. One of these places would be the historic Rialto theater in downtown El Dorado. This place is a palace to film, and built during the heydey of the oil boom in the 1920s, it is absolutely a relic of the roaring 20s. Here are some pics:

The screen proper


The lobby!


This old camera sits by the concession stand.

And that's all I have to say about that.
