Isis Theater
Salt Lake City, Utah
Open in 1908, the Isis Theatre was one of the first motion picture theaters in Salt Lake City. Its manager in 1910 was Max Florence, who a year later tried to blackmail the LDS Church by selling amateur photos of the Salt Lake Temple interior. Dan Kostopulos, a benefactor of underprivileged children, later renamed it the Broadway Theatre. In a 1976 press conference, Palace Theatre operator Lee Harper complained bitterly of persecution, made acusations of police brutality, threatened the life of a local judge, and accused the LDS Church of being involved with the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luthar King.

Millard County Progress, 26 February 1926, page 3
Washington's birthday was fittingly observed by our school Monday afternoon. An interesting program was given by the students in connection with the wonderful 12 reel picture “America” at the Anona Theatre in the afternoon. Mr. McKee repeated the show in the evening also Tuesday evening. America is one of the most wonderful plays that has ever been given to the public and every true American gets a thrill as he sees the characters of our colonial and Revolutionary period living again on the screen. It is of great value to all students as well as to older people.
