This cinema in the Trastevere neighborhood of Rome was established and run by actor/director Nanni Noretti. It was opened prior to 1940. Many films of distinction have opened in this respected art house over several decades. Often they have played non-Italian films in their original languages with Italian subtitles, a relative rarity in Italy. During the Mussolini era the building was a social center, and a fascist decorative feature of the facade has been kept. The cinema also has an outdoor screen in an adjacent garden theatre used during the warm months.

I saw the Russian film “Freeze, Die and Come to Life” here in February, 1992. Shown in Russian with Italian subtitles. Original language versions were the policy at this cinema as a reaction to almost universal dubbing in Italy.
The photos for the front of this cinema show the name from the fascist era, “Dopolavoro: Monopoli di Stato.” I just saw a listing in the May 18, 1940 edition of the newspaper Il Messaggero listing the films being shown at the Dopolavoro Forze Armate. I don’t know if it was the same place as this, but they were showing Chaplin’s “La fabbrica dell'appetito” (a silent)and Martha Eggerth in the 1938 “Sangue d'artista” (Immer wenn ich gluklich bin).
