Dean Baker and Liz Gottlieb Protest In Front of State Theater, May 1986 Photographer: Colleen Fitzgerald

Free Popcorn: U-M students Dean Baker and Liz Gottlieb handed out free popcorn Friday night in front of the State Theater to renew a long-standing protest against owner Kerasotes Theaters. Organizers said they hoped the free popcorn would cut into sales inside the theater. The theater, one of three owned by Kerasotes, has been boycotted since the chain bought it in 1984 and fired union projectionists, replacing them with non-union workers. Last year, Kerasotes sued The Pinkertons, a street theater group that staged protest skits in front of the theater, saying they had cost the chain $10,000 in revenue. That suit was settled out of court earlier this year.

BOOTH-EYE VIEW - A view from the ticket booth at the Briarwood Movies shows crowds of people lined up Friday evening to see "Star Wars," which opened this week. Steven Flynn, manager of the Movies says all seven Friday showings of the popular science fiction movie were sold out. Because of the great interest in the movie, he said tickets for the 7:50 and 10:15 p.m. showings are being sold at the same time. Flynn said this morning 360 people had lined up by 10 a.m. to see "Star Wars," and some of the moviegoers had been in line for more than an hour. He said robots will be seating people at the 7:50 p.m. showing today. Above the ticket booth are specially printed instructions on buying tickets for "Star Wars." He said all of the movies last night sold out except "For the Love of Benji," which is playing at the Movies 4. Other Briarwood movies attracting large lines are the epic war film "A Bridge Too Far" and "Exorcist II, The Heretic." (News Photo by Robert Chase)
