Cinema Le Sporting

In the 60’s and 70’s this was known as the Cinema d'Hiver in contrast with the hugely popular Cinema d'Ete outdoor movies shown under the stars

The Cinema d'Ete showed mostly American productions from all the major studios usually for one night only (occasionally big hits would get a second screening over the summer) – when I was a kid it was a huge treat to see things like MASH, West Side Story, Stalking Moon, Daddy’s Gone a Hunting, Grand Slam, Penelope, Kes, TickTickTick, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and plenty more outside…with the great French care towards projection
