After 20 years of online service, boutique movie store opens in Kansas City area

As more people turn to physical media like books and CDs , a new store in the Kansas City area is looking to fill the void for cinephiles. Kyle Findley has been operating Atomic Movie Store out of his residence in Lawrence for over 20 years; first as a shop on eBay and later through his own website. The shop offers both brand-new and used domestic and imported movies on Blu-Ray and 4K UHD Blu-ray, with the goal of offering customers a diverse selection of titles. An opportunity and a lack of space at his home for the movies he was shipping out daily moved him out of Lawrence and into Lenexa, where you can find his store at 12106 W. 87th St. Parkway. The storefront had its soft opening Tuesday, Nov. 10, and Findley’s excited to meet everyone who drops in to the boutique movie store to browse or purchase.

Opening a physical store will hopefully ease some of the burden on him, he said,

Before The Who were rock legends, they were getting kicked off the stage at a suburban Kansas City high school. It was November 1967, and the British rockers were the opening act for The Buckinghams at the brand-new Shawnee Mission South High School.
