Can be seen in the background of 1951 film Pool of London. The scene is about 1 hour in.

Watched ‘The Optimists’ (1973) last night with Peter sellers. There is a fantastic section where they walk through London and you see a great shot of the Odeon Leicester Square as well as glimpses of the Rialto and Odeon Marble Arch.

I remember watching the first Pirates of the Caribbean film here. This this was released 8th August 2003 in the Uk so it was still open then but due to close at any moment.

Screen 1 just sat empty for a decade. It was only after the whole site was closed that a conversion to a casino took place.

An odd effect of the split is that in screen 2 you are looking down at the screen rather than up.

It has closed with a performance of Back to the Future. Very sad.

I don’t know when the screen was split, however the larger screen 1 was closed in 1990 when the marina cinema opened. Therefore for the last 10 years of operation it was only a 3 screen cinema.

Correcting the above information, this is an 8 screen cinema.

This cinema is actually two separate cinemas connected by an external courtyard. The larger screened Kino Kultura is in the basement of the main building and the Kino Rejs (a much smaller screen) located in a separate structure. Both operate from the same ticket office. It also has a wonderful cafe at the entrance to the Kultura screen.

This cinema opened in 2004. It is situated on the third floor of the Arkadia shopping centre. It is one of six Cinemacity cinemas in Warsaw. The other sites are at Promenada, Janki, Bemowo, Galeria Mokotow and Sadyba. All are situated in shopping centres.

This building was originally a supermarket and then a collection of market stalls.

I used to regularly go to this cinema in the nineties. I believe the final film to be screened in Screen 2 before being divided was the Tim Burton version of Planet of the Apes.
