SCHENECTADY, N.Y. (WNYT) Proctors is marking its 100th anniversary with $1 movie screenings and a holiday food drive to support the Sycamore Collaborative. Proctors said the series is sponsored by MVP Health Care and Price Chopper/Market 32 and features films in the GE Theatre. The theater opened Dec. 27, 1926, as a vaudeville and movie palace and continues to host movie screenings. Since Sunday, Nov. 1, Proctors, MVP Health Care and Price Chopper/Market 32 have collected nonperishable food donations for the Sycamore Collaborative. Donation bins are outside the GE Theatre for moviegoers who want to give. Patrons who bring a nonperishable food donation will receive 10% off their next Proctors show. Proctors said the effort is meant to pair affordable entertainment with support for people facing food insecurity in the Capital Region. Upcoming screenings on the Proctors movie calendar include Wes Anderson s “The Royal Tenenbaums” at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 5 and Martin Scorses
