Description: "The Life and Death of a Movie Theater is the story of the State Theater, a neighborhood movie house in Woodbridge, NJ. The story of this theater is the story of many theaters throughout the United States and around the world. For over 40 years the State was the place to go. Many generations grew up with the State Theater and its staff as a major part of their lives. As Humphrey Bogart once said, it was 'the stuff that dreams are made of.'--Back cover
