At the end of the 2min55s movie featuring the interior of the theatre at

https://player.vimeo.com/video/676165226?h=51245a0f1a, if you wait to the end, you will see at the centre of the screen, “More from Paul Brennan”.

You will get the opportunity to see (1) curtains parting with and without the projected image from various viewing angles and (2) external view of the cinema starting from Summer Hill Station.

Thank you,
Anthony

Apologies, typographical error in the 4th paragraph of my comment. Where it says, “Mr Santos, film buff”, replace with “Mr Zantos, film buff”. Thank you, Anthony
