"Thank you for 97 years." Those are the words written on the old movie marquee outside the Esquire Theatre in Denver's Capitol Hill neighborhood ahead of Thursday night's final curtain call.
A crowd of people gathered outside the cinema ahead of the final two screenings — "Maxxine" at 7 p.m. and "A Quiet Place: Day One" at 7:05 p.m.
"This is kind of my social circle for a long time, and now it’s like, “What do I do on a Friday, Saturday night?" said Brad Haag, who has been visiting the theater for the past 20 years.
"The movement has really helped remind people what a staple it is to Denver's culture and art scene," said Jolee Harston in an interview with Denver7 in December 2023 .
