For small movie theater owners, “the worst year in the business” has come at personal cost

Years before he became a movie theater owner, and while working as a film projectionist, Jeff Logan helped to screen a showing one evening of the movie-turned-television series “M-A-S-H.”

There in the projection booth, he made one of what would eventually be many moviegoing memories.

“The audience was laughing so hard, that the glass in the booth portholes — the windows — was actually rattling,” he recalled in a recent interview. “And I just thought ‘Wow, this is really cool, that that many people are laughing this hard.”

Logan, who owns and operates theaters in Mitchell and Huron, S.D., has as apparent a penchant for movie theaters themselves as he does for the movie business. They are places for memory-making, be it alone or with friends or on first dates.
