I knew the Savoy well. In it’s later days it was managed by one Harry Nadler, who was a great lover of SF and fantasy films (he produced a magazine – L'Incroyable Cinema)and worked on the Fantasy Fim Festival scene. He was a friend of mine. I first met him when he ran a competition at the Savoy to watch Tales from the Crypt alone at midnight. I was a runner up, just in case the winner chickened out, and spent the time in the office chatting with him. He was in charge of the film program at Mancon 5 where we were able to see The Man Who Fell To Earth before it was released. Harry was lovely guy with a real passion for films and the cinema and sadly missed.
