What were the last 2 movies to play at the Flatbush Pavilion (now American Apparel)?

The question should be what was the last porno flick playing at the Pavillion before it went legit, and what was there first legit/Hollywood film?

Does anyone know why they are there?

As to the question of why, I always thought they were modern gargoyles. It seems very 1970s, so maybe the correct answer would be "why not?"

Okay, I have a question that I don't know the answer to. Did Aaron Copeland live on Prospect Place? Did he live in Prospect Heights?

I heard that he attended the old PS 9 on Sterling at Vanderbilt.

Re: "a red house on the left side of the street walking towards Vanderbilt."
If that house keeps walking then it WILL be in Park Slope.

Did you know Clara Bow (The It Girl), Howard Cosell and Aaron Copland went to Old PS 9 on the corner of Vanderbilt and Sterling...Well they did and only one was a gargoyle.
