Come And See - The Beguiling Story of the Tyneside Cinema

Michael Chaplin

0/5 ( ratings)

'It might be the most beautiful cinema I have ever seen.'

Writer Jon Ronson recently put into words what many people feet about the Tyneside Cinema. Built as a News Theatre in the 1930s, it contains myriad examples of recently restored Persian and art deco design, but its beauty isn't merely physical. It also has the most striking history, peopled by some extraordinary characters. This richly-illustrated book recreates that history - not just of the Tyneside, but the first 100 years of cinema itself.
