Alongside evocative archive photographs, names such as the Astoria, the Granada, the Continentale and the Regency are recalled in touching and humorous stories of romance, excitement, grandeur and, occasionally, fleas. Some of these recollections are drawn from QueenSpark's rich archive, others are the recorded reminiscenses of elders of the city asked to recall cinema-going in Brighton & Hove in the 1930s and 1960s. | | Type | Main Collection | | Thanks | Stella Cardus, Chris Harrison, Nigel French, Henry Bruce, Tricia Leonard, Tom Sawyer, Melita Dennett, Kevin Bacon, Jenny Hand, Beverley Green, Jennifer Drury at mybrightonandhove.org.uk, Tim Brown, Frank Gray, James Tulley at Kingswest Odeon, Colin Dibley, Debbie Chepstow.
