Forgotten Genius!? Well, there's the city planner who got most of the movie theaters in the Loop torn down and turned the rest, like this one, the Oriental and the Palace, into live theaters. And no, the Gene Siskel Theater (right behind where I was standing)is not a subsitute.
The Chicago is a glorious movie palace, but it would be better off as a multiplex than dark half the year waiting for some touring Broadway show.
