About this product

by Kartelluni A relatively small but very popular cinema at the Sliema Ferries which opened in the early 1920s - one of Malta’s first cinema theatres. Cinemas in Malta brought about a lot of enthusiasm and interest among people of all ages. They attracted large crowds and the halls were always packed. In those days, a visit to the cinema was quite a thrill! It offered cinemagoers a unique experience - ‘it felt like dreaming with your eyes open’ - many would describe it. In 1944 the Carlton theatre caught fire, but luckily no structural damages were caused and re-opened again some time after the incident. The Carlton closed down in the early 1960s. Today the former cinema building still stands and its fa ç ade is still recognisable mostly by the two small windows at the top. Illustrated by Nicole Sciberras Debono , Art Direction Janice Mercieca.
