Beatles Come to Sag Harbor

Man, I was just thinking about the Beatles, and remember when their movie, A Hard Day's Night, premiered in Sag Harbor. It was August 11, 1964 and my cousin Steve, who was out for the summer, and myself arrived downstreet at quarter to seven. The line was all the way back to the Sag Harbor Savings Bank, nowadays Apple Bank. We managed to get in and it was great, with girls screaming in the audience. All for a price of 50 cents. Afterwards we stopped at the Paradise restaurant for a 15 cent ice cream from Jim Alioto. Upon exiting the theatre, the line for the second show was as long as the first one. Only time I saw a line that long. Bad news is I hear the Sag Harbor movie theatre is for sale. A charming building. I hope the new owner/s keep it as it is.
