10 things that I love: #6: The Historic Elsinore Theatre




I love this theater! It's located in Salem Oregon and still shows classic movies. It's affordable, classy, and fun. The inside of it is beautiful!




I usually enjoy catching a black and white silent film there.

The best thing about these silent films is they have someone who accompanies the movie with organ music, so while you watch the movie, he's creating music to go along with it. It's pretty amazing.



It's a very beautiful place, and I've always enjoyed going to shows there. My favorite showing that I've seen so far has been Charlie Chaplin's "The Gold Rush" film.


My second favorite showing was the silent film of Peter Pan from the year 1924 :]


I've also had the privilege of seeing my first Alfred Hitchcock film (Psycho) there as well.

In general, I feel really good when I'm there, and I love the surrounding...I just find the whole place beautiful.






The stain glass is beautiful, and shows classic Macbeth characters from Shakespeare's play.






Even the back side of the building is beautiful



I love this theater, and I look forward to seeing more shows there in the future :]
