I met Louie at the Four Star theater while working on the 1983 Filmex Film festival. I needed to access electricity to set up the display for the front foyer, which he allowed as long as I could put everything back how it was. I did and this led to him asking me if I could fix a few things around the theater. Long story short, I fixed a myriad of things at different venues he operated. In return, I had free access to any screenings and carte blanche at the concession stand. This was nice as I was just getting my feet wet in the film industry. I must have watched Blade Runner over 30 times and had countless hotdogs, sodas, and popcorn the summer. We stayed friends for many years and I regret that I did not keep in contact in his latter years. Rest in Peace old friend.
