Great moments Green Co., KY: Larry Smith, boy projectionist 2012-09-05 - 5600 Hodgenville Road, Summersville, KY - Photo from the collection of Larry Smith. Larry Smith, of the Big Dawg, 99.9 FM, has these two favorite old photos from the 1970's of his days as a projectionist at the Skyline Drive-in in the 1970's. He was a student in high school at Greensburg, and was also working as an announcer on the Greensburg Radio Station, up on Buckner Hill. The projection room provided many memorable moments. One incident he remembers was the 14-20 minute-reels of Gone with the Wind. He left out three of them, he says, and some of the patrons weren't real happy about that. There were two projectors in the booth. One, showing the film, the other in waiting for a smooth changeover. Patrons rarely noticed a reel change but if it weren't synchronized, there would be a white screen and plenty of horn honking from the audience. Smith says one of his favorite things is talking about projectionists with some of the great ones among them: Robert Flowers of the Columbian Theatre; Jimmy Cravens of the Cozy in Campbellsville; Prof. A.W. Reed, at both the Kentuckian, next to the Post Office in downtown and the Green River Drive In in Liberty, KY. Smith is the only one who stayed in show biz, unless politics counts, in which case they all qualify as theater types. -CM Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
