You're right - Movietone News. We went to the neighborhood theater for 11 cents and 25 cents at the Pantages up on Hollywood Boulevard. We'd get a week's worth of news in 5 minutes.

Those were the days when L.A. had 2 morning papers and 2 evening papers. The Times and Examiner in the morning and the The Mirror and Herald in the afternoon. The Times became the Times Mirror and the Herald because the Herald Examiner, but it eventually disappeared. Now there's just the Times, which is on a death watch. Don't expect it to be around in the future. No loss there. I still subscribe but that's because I want the Sunday crosswords. So they send the rest of the paper for the price of the Sunday paper.
