  • <p>They have recently installed seven new screens to show a variety of international and local art films, suitable for all tastes.</p>
            
              <h1>They even make the most of the Tasmanian sunshine and have a rooftop cinema during the summer months. These include all of the latest Hollywood releases, shown on a large projector screen under the stars, where guests get to lounge on deckchairs.</h1>

  • <p>The original interior of the Essoldo.</p>
  • <p>Great interior shot circa 1927.</p>
  • <p>1956</p>
  • <p>Comparison of standard 35mm and 70mm films in the early 1930s. Both gauges feature an off-axis picture with a variable-density Movitone mono optical sound track to the left of the picture, as well as a four-perforation pulldown profile. The 70mm process portrayed here is Fox Grandeur for which the Roxy was equipped. I don’t remember where this illustration comes from, publisher unknown.</p>
