Nottingham Cinema History
Tue 14 Jan 2014From his first experience of Saturday morning kids’ shows at the pictures, Rick Wilde became hooked on not only films but on how cinemas worked. Beginning his career in 1953 as a four teen-year-old, he worked as a projectionist until 2006. When he joined the business there was 52 picture houses around the city: from the crude conversions of the early 1900s, the gilded Victorian palaces of the 1910s, the art deco continentals of the 1930s, the sophisticated twin and triples of the 1960s and 1970s, to the multiplexes of today - he’s seen it all. A walking encyclopedia of Notts cinema shares his knowledge with us...

History of Nottingham's Savoy Cinema
Mon 13 Jan 2014On 7 November 1935, the Savoy Cinema opened its doors to screen its first film, Flirtation Walk, a musical romance starring Dick Powell. It was likely that only the Lenton locals took any notice of this event because, at that time, there were 52 other cinemas in and around Nottingham. So if it wasn’t that extraordinary then, what is its place in Nottingham today? And how in Cockleman’s name has it survived so long when the others have not?
