Echo Chamber - 297: Part Two
I hope you're ready for 'Part TWO' of this week's @EchoChamberFP https://www.instagram.com/echochamberfp/ cause it's rammed to the rafters!!!
If you were going to the cinema in London in the late 70's onwards, then you may have passed through the hallowed doors of the Scala Cinema. However, don't worry if you didn't, cause there's a new documentary, that exudes the very essence of place and its era! THEN, we have the pleasure of speaking with the programmer for the cinema, and a repeat imbiber, who together brought the film to life! We go on a journey, exploring those heady days, as well as what it was like to breathe life into such a personal story, not just for them, but for a generation!!! Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/IabLaI6KYHs
In 'Part Two' we have:
SCALA!!! Or, the incredibly strange rise and fall of the world’s wildest cinema and how it influenced a mixed-up generation of weirdos and misfits
