Marszalkowska Street

Marszałkowska Street in Warsaw (Poland), the twenty-year interwar period

… please look out on the streets of Warsaw in the evening—the Nowy Świat [New World], Marszałkowska Street, Chmielna Street. What shines the brightest? The Majestic Motion Picture Theater, the Coliseum Motion Picture Theater, the Pan Motion Picture Theater, the Światowid Motion Picture Theater, the Atlantic Motion Picture Theater. Where are the biggest crowds? The gates leading to the motion picture theaters, reminiscent of fantasy caverns, littered with posters of stars—brimming with nervous throngs.
