About twenty years ago, I attended a midnight screening at The Movies of Alfred Hitchcock’s “Foreign Correspondent.” When the famous scene came on where a statesman is assassinated in Amsterdam’s main square, the audience became hysterical with laughter over the inaccurate settings and the over-abundance of extras circling around on bicycles.

View link is a review of this theater (in Dutch), containing a few photographs for those interested.

Had the pleasure of visiting this venue a couple times recently. Focusses mostly on the bigger arthouse titles (and “serious” Hollywood productions), and it’s only second to the Tuschinski for the most beautiful art-deco interior in town.
