gremlin_mick Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I think the first film I saw at the Rex was Petes Dragon, which came out in late 1977. I would have been 9 y.o. There were a load of us kids from our estate went to see it, all trooping down Mansfield Road with our mums! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
