I saw the film “Il successo” with Vittorio Gassman here on August 21, 1969. I believe it might have been shown on the adjacent outdoor screen, if I am not mistaken.

I went to see Visconti’s “Lo straniero” (The Stranger) here on April 21, 1988. It was then (and still is) a very hard film to see just about anywhere. I recall that they ran a beautiful 35mm print of the Italian-language version.

“Chiusura estiva” means closed for the summer, as was the case of the majority of Italian cinemas in the summer months. Some had a separate outdoor arena or garden where movies might be shown in the summer.

I saw Andrzej Wajda’s film “Les possédés” here on July 12, 1989. It bore the title “I demoni.” It was the only time I ever visted this theatre. I remember the interior being gorgeous.

This might be around 1957 and the poster might be for the Brigitte Bardot film Une Parisienne. Not sure.
