About
The David Lean Cinema is a volunteer-run community cinema housed within the Croydon Clocktower arts complex on Katharine Street in Croydon, South London. Named after the legendary British film director David Lean—who was born in nearby Croydon—the cinema screens a thoughtfully curated programme of independent, arthouse, classic, and world cinema, alongside selected mainstream releases. The venue is a registered charity and is operated entirely by dedicated volunteers.
With its single screen and community-focused ethos, the David Lean Cinema offers an intimate, affordable alternative to the larger multiplex chains in the Croydon area.
