Comment on Nothing new 3: Victorian Disneyland by royalpavilion

To answer my own question, of course the camera was not ‘strapped to the front of a train’. It was mounted on a flat car that was pushed along in front of the engine. D’oh!

I was very interested and enlightened in the history of the New Empire cinema in Haddington Street, Hove. I served a five year apprenticeship in that building between 1953 until 1958 as an electrical fitter, for a company named Armature Service Company, who specialized in the repair and rewinding of electric motors.All the time I worked there, I never did learn anything of the cinema, not even its name.

Hi David,

A couple of additional plaques that I have noted in Brighton are:

* A second Max Miller plaque at 160 Marine Parade http://openplaques.org/plaques/1068

* Rumours of a Bing Crosby plaque inside The Brighton Centre http://openplaques.org/plaques/1255

‘Spirit of the Beehive’ (Victor Erice, 1973) – the girl transfixed by seeing Whale’s ‘Frankenstein’ in a (travelling) film show. Allen producing Marshall McLuhan in thefilm queue discussion/argument scene in “Annie Hall’ (Allen, 1977). De Niro taking Shepherd to the porn cinema in ‘Taxi Driver’ (Martin Scorsese 1976). Terence Davies’ luminous autobiographical films. Lassie in Technicolor at the start of Bill Douglas’ wonderful ‘My Ain Folk’ (1973). Best of all, of course, Buster Keaton in ‘Sherlock, Jr’ (Keaton, 1924) – one of the first and greatest cinema metafictions (arguably only Rivette comes close), and the source that Woody shamelessly ripped off for “Purple Rose of Cairo’.

Oh – and there’s the screening room in ‘Citizen Kane’ (Orson Welles, 1941) where ‘News on the March’ is projected and found wanting – just to show that ‘Kane’ is still the film that subsumes all others….

You’re right, though – it’s a bit like that truism that TV soap operas are just like real life except that none of the characters in them ever sits down and watches a TV soap opera…
