I miss the old style cinemas with their art-deco foyers and quality service, not to mention being dotted all over the suburbs. Television killed the majority of these cinemas, back in the 40s there were four of these close to where I live now. Now there are none. But fortunately in Melbourne there's the Astor Theatre in East St Kilda, the last one standing, screening classic and recent films in 35mm and digital.
