This cinema is featured extensively in the 1962 film “The Traitors” as the rendezvous point of spies, one of whom meets his end in the Dress Circle during a very noisy and unseen (presumably) war picture. Good shots of the exterior, and quite the tour of a very grand-looking interior, including a chase up the Circle staircase.
Shouldn’t this cinema be “Grange Kilburn”, to enable it to be searched under Kilburn (see nearby cinemas)?
