Le Cyrano

In one of VDP's earliest posts, I showed you one of the city centre's cinemas, the Cyrano (named after a famous play) and a detail here. Today, two close ups taken last week in the evening.
Au tout début de l'aventure de VDP, je vous montrais l'un des deux cinoches du centre ville, le Cyrano, ainsi qu'un détail ici. Voici l'immeuble, le soir.

Beautiful light reflecting in those windows.

I like how you centered the reflection in the half-moon window.

Looks more like an important government building than a cinema. The reflections and light are gorgeous!

aren't those windows wonderful?

Regina K said...

I agree, wonderful windows and light reflected.

Love those windows!

I'm glad that such an elegant building continues to be useful. Was it built as a cinema or some other kind of theater?

I love the look of this cinema Ciel, much prefer smaller 'indie' type places rather than the mega complexes! Those windows are superb and the reflections are perfectly placed. Can't believe it's the weekend again, have a great one!

The windows are just amazing. Great reflections.

Il est vraiment beau ce cinema. Je viens de lire que c'etait un music hall qui a accueilli bien des stars.

These are not reflections, these are stained glass (or perhaps painted glass).

Dina said...

Wow, really?! Very special windows.

This reminds me of a France-themed Effetto Venezia beginning today... Yes, they even got a Cyrano!

Where is the big nose? :-) Lovely façade.

Jack said...

It is a lovely facade. The asymmetrical windows and brickwork are interesting to see. Have fun this weekend.

Francisca said...

Hey, where are the billboards then?

cieldequimper said...

@ Francisca: you can see them on the older post!

A very beautiful cinema.

It's a lovely building. Our university did Cyrano de Bergerac last year as one of the drama program's productions. It was a big hit.
