I worked there as a projectionist not long after it opened in 1977. Cinema 1 used Cinemacannica and cinema 2 and 3 used Kalee 21 projectors. Light source was Zenon bulb for all cinemas.

All cinemas were automated using metal strip on the film to operate a uniselector to step to the next programmed function (forget the name of the system).

Three photographs I took of the Greater Union Cinemas in March 2010:
