Odeon Randwick

This photo seems to have been taken on Saturday 15th February 1947 before the 1.30 p.m. “Gala Opening’ of the Odeon National Cinema Club which was being introduced by Greater Union at the time. The Rank Organization took a 50% interest in the circuit in 1945 and this club idea – along with the Odeon name – came from that UK group. Screening that night at 7.30 p.m. was Yvonne De Carlo in “The Lady Objects” (the Australian release title of “Frontier Gal”). Starting Monday was Belita in “Suspicion”.
