Despite all the issues with sexual activity in the toilets, a patron being found dead in his seat, another vomitting suicide by jumping off the roof, drug dealing occurring nearby and the film showing unrated movies that did not have classification, the Scala cinema was actually closed down because they had one screening of A Clockwork Orange (1971) in 1993 and therefore broke copyright notice as director Stanley Kubrick had ordered the film to not be shown in the UK. The screening drew the ire of Warner Bros legal department and ended up in court.
Academy Award winning director Christopher Nolan is one of the patron names who backed this documentary.
