"The Last Picture Show" theater reopens

The movie theater featured in the 1971 film, "The Last Picture Show," has been restored in the dusty town of Archer City, TX. Or at least the front of the place has been rebuilt. The theater burnt down 35 years ago. Behind the front facade and marquee, it will operate as an open air amphitheater and tourist attraction.
