It was originally the Ezella theater, constructed in 1912 it seems. Thanks for exploring with me.

Architects: Avery Associates, 1999. The building drops another storey below road level where the entrances are approached on foot. Largest movie screen in UK. Due to proximity of heavy road and underground (subway/metro) traffic, the structure rests on A/V mounts and is surrounded by a full-height glazed gallery which, sadly, is now utilised to display advertising. London Borough of Lambeth.

Back in the 60s, when I was in school, I'd go to the Brattle Theater in Harvard Square almost every week to see the foreign and classic films they played (there weren't a lot of indie films back then). It was renowned for its "orgies" of Bogart films during final-exam times at Harvard.
You entered the theater through these barn-like doors, which opened directly onto Brattle Street. When a movie ended, you exited through them as well, stepping around the two or three employees who stood in the doorway to make sure that nobody snuck in without paying through the emerging crowd.
The theater is still there, and still in the same barn-like structure. But it's only the back half of the building is a theater now and the entrance is on the side. The front half now houses shops and boutiques. When I took this picture, there was only one shop -- Truc -- and it was down in the basement with the Blue Parrot coffee house and the small Casablanca restaurant (both referring to the movie Casablanca).
Truc -- French for miscellaneous stuff -- originally sold soaps, aromatic candles (relatively rare back then), and posters but then found that bell-bottom jeans were more profitable, so it became more of a clothing store.
Historic movie theater opened in 1923 and in use as such until the 1950s. Currently it is a venue for performing arts. Hudson Falls, New York.
So, this is the old Abergavenny Coliseum cinema, that has been refurbished and is a Weatherspoon's pub. We stopped by for a quick drink and a light lunch. The place was pretty busy for a Tuesday lunchtime and there were lots of people having a coffee and a sandwich, enjoying the reasonable prices.
On the face of it, we have an old building that probably went out of business, due to lack of demand for sticky seats and over priced popcorn. Behind the heritage facade, we now have a cut price boozer. It's not been turned in to flats, so maybe I should be grateful for that!
