The Scala

The Scala. The best cinema I ever went to. My hall of residence was down the road. In King's Cross, when it was really quite ropey. Ran as a cinema club, 50p membership. Showed 3 films, in rotation, a day, you paid once and could stay as long as you liked.
 Beer, cake and a cat which roamed around scaring the life out of you when the horror films were on. All night on a Saturday. Steep rake. The coolest cinema ever. Killed by showing A Clockwork Orange when it was banned in England. I don't think calling it A Very Curious Fruit, was a good enough disguise.
