    This a a wonderful old cinema. It is conveniently loacted in Paddington, easy to get to, just off Oxford St. I always keep my eye out for great arthouse movies that are being played here.

    Housed in the historic Paddington Town Hall, The Chauvel Cinema is perhaps one of the better appointed cinemas of the Palace Cinemas chain. Known for screening arthouse and somewhat off-beat films, along with some recent releases, The Chauvel is also currently the home for the resurgence of The Rocky Horror Picture Show screenings and live show once a month.

    Great independent cinema with a really interesting roster of films and double bills. Great old building too. Take something warm to wear in winter or stock up on their hot chocolate and red wine beforehand. The seats a bit uncomfortable.

  • Chauvel Cinema

    Ultimate Sydney

    Thursday, July 22, 2010

    So it’s not technically a drinking establishment, but the old-school Chauvel Cinema in the historic Paddington Town Hall does have a licensed bar and is the perfect place to strike up a conversation about obscure French cinema with a likeminded soul. And if the cute balcony and Art Deco splendour of the interior don’t set your heart racing, we really don’t know what will.
