PATHE TUSCHINSKI, AMSTERDAM
A plaque to this palatial cinema’s founder, Abram Icek Tuschinski, adorns its ornate lobby wall. Its elegant mash-up of art deco and art nouveau styles with sleek modernist touches brings his dream to life daily for movie-mad Amsterdammers.
LE GRAND REX, PARIS
Much more than just a cinema and concert hall, Le Grand Rex is one of the capital’s most cherished cultural institutions.
VILLAGE EAST CINEMA, NEW YORK
With its unassuming facade and East Village dive bar neighbours, you wouldn’t expect to find anything too out of the ordinary at this five-screen cinema.
THE PROJECTOR, SINGAPORE
This isn’t just the place to go in Singapore to get comfy on a bean bag while watching a cult classic – it’s the only place. The Projector opened in 2014 but the venue itself boasts a rich film history.
THE ELECTRIC, LONDON
The seats are heavenly – you’d pay just to sit in them – and for the terminally decadent (or sleep-deprived parents at a baby-friendly screening), there are even beds at the back.
CINEMA DEI PICCOLI, ROME
The world’s smallest cinema according to the Guinness Book of Records, this lime green, tree-shrouded picture box in Villa Borghese gardens is one of the cutest on the planet too.
THE ASTOR, MELBOURNE
Dating back to 1936, The Astor is the oldest single-screen theatre in Melbourne, and its past is as dramatic as its popular double-bills.
