  I was trying to see what film was playing and could just make out "Irish Rose" but the wonderful Wikipedia gave me the answer below! This is a really wonderful shot with a wealth of detail to savour! The cars, the fashions, the shops and the queue waiting to see the (we call them films) movie! Abie's Irish Rose is a 1928 early talking (part-talkie) film directed by Victor Fleming, based on the play Abie's Irish Rose by Anne Nichols. Plot A Jewish boy, Abie Levy (Rogers), falls in love with and secretly marries Rosemary Murphy (Carroll), an Irish Catholic girl, but lies to his family, saying that she's Jewish. The fathers of both bride and groom are at first religiously bigoted toward the other but with the birth of twin grandchildren, their antagonism fades.

  Thanks for the extra information!

  Not quite as stylish as the Rialto but very worthwhile all the same. "Aflame with the fire of genius"!!! You have the bonus here of the photographer and his assistant with glass distortion in the ticket booth!

  I wonder if that was intentionally distorted to draw attention away from the reflection.
