In 1969 Ster City , situated in Claim Street, became the first cinema complex to open in
Johannesburg. This very modern facility housed three separate cinemas: Cine 1000
(with a seating capacity of 886), Cine 700 (seating 659 patrons)and Cine 300 (seating
255 patrons). Two of the cinemas, the 1000 and the 700, were both equipped with
70mm projection and 6-track magnetic stereo sound equipment . The Cine 300 was an
intimate cinema destined to show the more 'arty' type movie. The opening attractions
were 'Oliver!' (Cine 1000), 'Funny Girl' (Cine 700) and Lindsay Anderson's film 'If...' in the
Cine 300. It was the flagship of the newly-formed company Ster Theatres.
