The Cinema Altieri existed in 1908 and operated into the early-1960’s. It was at various points used for variety show performers with some of the same stars that appeared at the Galleria.
The building itself that it was part of, the Palazzo Altieri, is a historic one that has its origins several centuries ago when it belonged to a prominent Roman family which included among its descendants more than one pope. For much of her life stage and screen actress Anna Magnani lived in this building. It is at the rear of the building across from the Church of the Gasu.

The photo posted of this cinema showing “Compulsion” in 1959 suggests it may have survived into the 1960s. More precise information would be appreciated.
On May 18, 1940 there was a movie double bill at the Altieri: “Dietro la facciata” (the 1939 French “Derriere la façade.”) and “La grande prova” (the 1938 French “Ramuntcho”.) From a listing in Il Messaggero.
