by German film maker Adalbert Baltes and first introduced to the motion picture industry of the world in
Chicago in l959 by Wisconsin producer director, Bill Rebane.

front of the camera talent, late evening showings of Hollywood classics and special presentations of
outstanding story and character driven selected films. While the emphasis is on family entertainment,
