Beginning in the 1940s, the Ken Cinema brought foreign and independent films to San Diego. But the single-screen landmark has been vacant for the past two years and has just been sold.
"I was surprised because I was like, 'oh my gosh, the seats are still there, the screen is still there. There are even speakers on the wall.' I actually got excited," Van Thillo recalled."I was like, 'oh, we could turn this around pretty quickly.' A little bit of new paint, new carpet, and we would have had a cinema running really quickly.
"It was 1984 and it was this Japanese film about Antoni Gaudí," Russell recalled."It was one of the most contemplative films, and it just struck me at the time. It was this mystical, magical thing and it made me see architecture in a new way. It changed my life. That's when we talk about what movies can do, they literally can change your life."He mourns the fact that the Ken will no longer be that place for such cinematic discoveries.
