CINES: FACHADAS DE LEYENDA.


Por: Lázaro Sarmiento

Las puertas de estos antiguos cines de La Habana nunca volverán a abrirse al público de las películas. Sus proyectores hace tiempo dejaron de lanzar esa  lluvia de meteoritos que al chocar en la pantalla se convierte en personajes y paisajes. Detrás de sus paredes nada queda de “la vida interior” de los espectadores que colmaban la platea y el balcony en sus momentos de gloria. Sus butacas y la densa oscuridad sirvieron de pequeños escenarios para primeros atrevimientos, amores felices, travesuras y promesas tan verdaderas como las historias que contaban los filmes. Y no estoy seguro de que haya fantasmas que habiten estos edificios, algunos heridos de muerte para siempre, otros convertidos en locales para nuevas funciones.

De estas fachadas, la mejor conservada es la del antiguo cine Universal, en la calle Egido. Esta sala tenía 1048 butacas (izquierda). El local acoge en la actualidad a un grupo infantil de teatro.

¿Qué hacemos con estas fachadas?


Antiguo cine NEPTUNO, en Neptuno no. 507 ( 800 butacas)


En la calle Consulado estaban los cines MAJESTIC (1110 butacas) y el VERDUN ( 350 butacas)


DUPLEX (500 butacas) y REX CINEMA (750 butacas) en la calle San Rafael



El antiguo cine NORMA (820 butacas) en la Calzada de Luyanó. Como otros de su época, imitaba la fachada de los teatros.


El cine teatro CAMPOAMOR ( 1082 butacas) en la esquina de Industria y San José

  2. La fachada de la calle Egido, a la derecha del cine Universal, es puramente Cordobesa, arabigo-andaluza, sus arcos y detalles arquitectónicos son propios de la cultura morisca en Córdoba, mi ciudad.
    Saludos.

  7. Hiya! Quick question that's completely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My blog looks weird when browsing from my apple iphone. I'm trying to find a template or plugin that might be able
    to correct this problem. If you have any suggestions, please share.
    Thanks!

  8. Hey! I was curious to know if setting up a blog website such your own:
    http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1277232207294366162&postID=158790131957988950 is difficult to do for inexperienced people?

    I've been wanting to create my own blog for a while now but have been turned off mainly because I've always
    assumed it demanded tons of work. What do you think? Thanks alot :)

  11. I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own weblog and was curious what all is required to get set up? I'm assuming having a
    blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?

    I'm not very internet savvy so I'm not 100% positive. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Kudos

  12. Heya! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems with hackers?
    My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing several weeks of hard work
    due to no data backup. Do you have any solutions to prevent hackers?

    It's funny due to the fact I use to have a website that virtually had an identical url: http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1277232207294366162&postID=158790131957988950 mine was only a few characters different. In any case, I'm a big admirer of your blog
