Blank poster for Red Star Cinema. Only the name of the cinema appears on the poster, the screening time and the title of the film were added later.
Royal Apollo Cinema (later Vörös Csillag) was opened on 31 October, 1915, in the former ballroom and concert hall of the famous hotel, the Grand Hotel Royal. The movie theatre, which was renamed Vörös Csillag (Red Star) after 1948, was a major rival to the smaller cinemas on the Budapest Grand Boulevard, already at the end of the 1910s.
