Sorry Cody! Route 66 News of Interest: Historic theaters in the Route 66 towns of Winslow, Ariz., and Santa Fe, N.M., have reopened or soon will reopen, according to news reports. The Winslow Movie Theater, known as the Rialto in downtown Winslow, held its grand opening March 29, reported the Tribune-News in Winslow. Stephen and LuAnne Hancock of nearby Joseph City recently took over operations. The Santa Fe New Mexican newspaper reports that George R.R. Martin, who wrote the novels on which the HBO s Game of Thrones is based, has bought the longclosed Jean Cocteau Cinema in the Santa Fe Railyard. According to the owner of a hair salon in the building, Martin is interested in reviving the theater. The theater is only a couple of blocks west of Route 66. GOT SHIRTS?
