I lived a few doors from the Paris Pullman fro 1972 – 80. I can say I grew up in the Paris Pullman.
The Paris Pullman cinema was just up Drayton Gardens toward Fulham Road. It was a reporatory art cinema. They showed all the new avant garde film releases. On the weekends they played late night double features screenings of a wide range of films. They started around 11pam and finished after 2am. I spent hundreds of hours there over the years. Some of the first films I remember seeing there were Woodstock and Moneterey Pop. I also saw Mad Dogs and Englishmen about the Joe Cocker tour of the USA, Janice about Janice Joplin. T
The late nights became very popular over the years and you had to queue up around the block. It was OK for me as I lived just a few doors away. I saw many of the great director’s films from Kurosawa to Herzog. The Paris Pullman is also where I saw the greatest film of all, Performance.
