Cinema Llandudno Programme 1924 page 1

Disgrifiadau

This is the first and fourth page of the programme for Cinema Llandudno in Mostyn St in 1924 which was screening the latest hits for the people of North Wales.
The programme includes a subtitled British production from London's West End, a 1923 romance in the Arabian desert starring Norma Talmadge as an Arabain dancing girl and "the greatest international success of the century", The Covered Wagon, a silent Western film which premiered in New York in 1923, "the picture the whole country's talking about"!
Until the late 1920s movies were silent and so cinemas had their own live orchestras to provide musical accompaniment and Llandudno was no exception. These are the early days of the cinema when going to the movies was more than simply seeing a film. As the programme shows, cinemas were entertainment centres, screening current affairs, newsreels, nature documentaries, film reviews and other items and also offered programmes of music as well.
