Max Linder Panorama


The Max Linder Panorama is a cinema in Paris. It has been described as "one of the most beautiful Parisian movie theatres".

History

Inaugurated in 1912, the venue was quickly acquired by Max Linder, a pioneer of burlesque cinema.
Threatened with closure in the 1980s, the Max Linder was bought by a group of cinephiles with a view to restoration. Rather than subdividing the available space to allow for additional smaller screens, the owners elected to preserve the original theatre and install a curved panoramic screen.
The cinema's screen, 18m wide, is one of the largest in Paris.

Programming

The Max Linder specialises in spectacular international productions, animations, and retrospectives.
