DENVER — People who lived in North Denver in the 1950s, '60s and '70s remember the Holiday Theater's Sunday tradition. Every week, the theater showed a movie starring Spanish-speaking actors, mainly from Mexico.This weekend,"Cine Mexicano" came back to life with"Dos Tipos de Cuidado," starring Pedro Infante and Jorge Negrete. The Spanish-speaking film was made in 1953.
"When we would come to the Holiday, it was all a hangout. Many times, no one would see the movies," Beall said. "They would bring us down here to see the movies, and the very first movie that we saw was 'La Llorona.' It was great. The Llorona they make now is no comparison," Eslary said."It brings back memories of my parents and family," Eslary said.
