Former Loew’s usher rescues 1930s movie posters

Access Atlanta.com is reporting that a Former Loew’s usher rescues hand-painted movie posters.

“I’m just glad they were saved,” said Herb Bridges, 79, a retired rural mail carrier raised in the same house he now uses as a kind of seven-room storage unit for his various collections. “They’ve given me a lot of pleasure for more than a year. Now I’d like to share them.”

Bridges’ poster collection from the long-gone Loew’s Grand theater is a rare artifact both of old Hollywood and old Atlanta. It was featured in a recent issue of Architectural Digest, and about a dozen of the posters were exhibited last month at the Centre for the Performing and Visual Arts in nearby Newnan.

The Incredible Hulk Movie Poster

The Incredible Hulk
Buy at AllPosters.com



The Incredible Hulk is a 2008 superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character the Hulk released on June 13, 2008, I just got around to seeing it. Directed by Louis Leterrier and stars Edward Norton as Dr. Bruce Banner / the Hulk, Liv Tyler as Betty Ross, William Hurt as General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross and Tim Roth as Emil Blonsky, no shortage of star power here.

The film follows Banner as he flees the pursuit of General Ross while attempting to find a cure to rid himself of the Hulk. When Blonsky personally volunteers to be injected with Banner's gamma formula to aid Ross in his capture, he becomes an even greater monster, and Banner must accept his inner beast to defeat Blonsky.

I thought it was an OK movie, I probably should have waited to see it on video. And I can see how it was a warm up for the bigger and better movies that followed in the summer of 2008.
