AMC Entertainment History

After buying the Regent Theater, the Dubinsky brothers changed their name to Durwood and their business was known as Durwood Theaters. They eventually would expand to own more than a dozen drive in theaters and movie houses in the area.http://www.amcentertainment.com/AMCInfo/About/

Edward's son, Stanley, came up with the idea for the first multi-screen theatre in the 1950s. They cut several large theaters in the Kansas City area down into smaller, more intimate settings, showing several films in the same house. Then, in 1963, the first actually designed multiplex, known as the Parkway Twin, was built in south Kansas City.http://www.amcentertainment.com/AMCInfo/About/

In 1968, the Durwood idea of multiplex theaters had grown nationwide and was incorporated as American Multi-Cinema, or AMC. AMC has also been at the forefront of online ticketing and in 2006, they purchased the Loews Cinema chain as well to add to their portfolio.http://www.amcentertainment.com/AMCInfo/About/
