Update on progress: September 2019

24/9/2019

 I have been working on this site in wake of the re-design: updating information; identifying and  remedying glitches.  One significant problem I have identified is that all information on West Coast cinemas (Greymouth, Reefton, Westport and Hokitika) was lost in the transition to the new site. This means I will have to travel down there as soon as I can, to ensure these important places are included.  Indeed, it was the now-closed Crooked Mile Talking Pictures cinema in Hokitika which inspired the first iteration of this site (see photo above).
Also, the Cinema of the Month feature (with the Lumiere in Christchurch as first entry) will be unchanged for little while longer, as I attend to other matters.

Hi

Wondering if you have any info about the future of Crystal Palace Cinema/Ballroom in Mt Eden Road Auckland?

Cheers
Geoff

When I last checked (early October), there seems to be little happening at the Crystal Palace.

Thanks Geoff (namesake). You are the first to comment on this new site. I need to check progress on the Crystal Palace, since they re-opened. Hopefully I can do this next week.
