Are we talking Hurst v. Picture Theatres Ltd [1915] 1 KB 1 here? If so,
I remember the ratio being exactly the opposite, which is why Mr Hurst
won damages in an action for assault as is contractual license (or,
as the court had it, his non-gratuitous license) was purportedly (and
unjustifiably) terminated by the cinema, DESPITE the fact it gave him
no proprietary interest. Or am I remembering wrong?
