    3. I can tell you that the Isis was located on the corner of Garden and Palafox St. The Rex was located only a few doors north of the Isis on the same side of the street. I watched many movies at both the Rex and the Isis. First run movies were played at the Saenger, then to the Rex and finally to the Isis. The movies got cheaper each time it was moved.
