EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Charing Cross Road in July 1982. The lens of photographer Paul Barkshire perfectly captures the essence of this iconic London neighborhood, known for its vibrant energy and cultural significance. At first glance, our eyes are drawn to the prominent building at 103 Charing Cross Road. This was once home to the beloved Tam O Shanter pub, a place where locals and visitors alike would gather for a pint and lively conversation. Its charming facade stands as a testament to the rich history that permeates every corner of this city. Adjacent to the former pub is the Filmcenta cinema, an establishment that played an integral role in shaping Soho's entertainment scene. As we peer through its windows, we catch glimpses of movie posters advertising some timeless classics: Once Upon a Time in the West, The French Lieutenants Woman, and Raiders of the Lost Ark. These films not only entertained audiences but also left an indelible mark on cinematic history. The atmosphere captured in this photograph is one filled with anticipation and excitement. It transports us back to a time when cinemas were buzzing with eager moviegoers seeking escape or inspiration within their hallowed walls. Paul Barkshire's skillful composition allows us to immerse ourselves in this snapshot from decades past – reminding us that even amidst change and progress, there will always be remnants of bygone eras waiting to be discovered on Charing Cross Road.
