The Grand Rex is a cinema in Paris. It is noted for its sumptuous decoration and its outsized main auditorium, which is the largest cinema theatre in Europe. The Rex, as it was originally known, was built for Jacques Haïk, a wealthy film producer known for having introduced Charlie Chaplin to France. Haïk aimed to create the most beautiful movie theatre in Paris, where cinema-goers would have the illusion of watching a film in the open air. The design was by Auguste Bluysen, a French architect, with input by John Eberson, a prolific American architect known for his atmospheric cinemas in North America. Construction began in 1931, and the cinema opened its doors the following year on the evening of 8 December.
