Embassy Cinema, Pearse Street. Today The Academy. Dublin 1963.

Two boys ride their bicycles on the wet, reflective surface of Pearse Street in Dublin, 1963. One boy glances at his companion as they pedal past a partial view of a car in the foreground. In the background stands the Embassy Cinema, now The Academy, its marquee advertising films including "The Hitch-Hiker" and "Singin' in the Rain". Other mid-century vehicles are visible down the street under an overcast sky, suggesting recent rain.
