When Caine's wife goes to meet him at the movie theater, is that a real theater in England? Also, as she walks in, in the background there is a store called "HORNE" Does anyone know if that is real and still around?
shareYes it's called the Dominion. Currently running We will Rock you. For thirty years it was a major cinema. 1955-1985 approx.
shareThe Dominion Tottenham Court Road, used to premiere certain movies as well; I think one of the Bond movies had it's premiere there - I can't recall which. Quite interesting to see the movies that were showing: A Touch of Class, and even Sleuth with Caine. So funny to see how London's west end was back then, and how much it has changed (Not for the better IMO).
Horne was a menswear store which closed years ago, around the late 1980s if memory serves. Carphone Warehouse now occupies it's spot.
As a Bond fan I can assure you Bond has only premiered at...
London Pavilion
Rialto
Odeon Leicester Sq
Albert Hall
