Cinemas

Speaking as a filmmaker of sorts I find it pretty irritating that there's an old Odeon cinema 5 minutes walk from my place. It closed down 3 years ago. Mostly down to the fact it was vastly inferior to the larger cinemas around Chester. It would however be perfect as a place to screen the independent and foreign films people like myself don't get to watch because the big cinemas dedicate 7 screens to whatever film 14 year old girls want to watch that particular week. I saw a young woman had managed to re-open an old cinema in Oldham recently. I admire her attitude and I wish someone around here could do the same.
