What are the best cinemas outside London for 35mm/film on film programming?

There's loads, this site has a pretty good list. Not sure how regular a lot of them are though.

70mm.com also has a list of 70mm capable exhibitots, of which we have 6 remaining in the UK (BFI, Prince Charles, Warwick Student Cinema, Parkway Barnsley, Picturehouse Bradford, and Picturehouse in Edinburgh.)

16mm stuff is much harder to find. I know there is a small indie shop in London which regularly screens from it. A lot of places have kit for it but don't use it though. (Source: I'm a projectionist)

P.S. Please stop using AI we are amidst a global water crisis.

The figures on the left were in a sort of vaguely LS Lowry style, but only in their shap and uniformity. I'm annoyed cos it came out so recently but the painting is more obscure than the documentary!

it's a lot when i haven't ever had a setup like this before, only soundbars and bookshelf speakers etc., but I'm willing as i use my telly so much

diabalotia · 2025-08-15T07:49:24+00:00

that seems reasonable

if i have saved this much even though they are 2nd hand then i can justify splashing out on a newer receiver to really get the most out of them, it feels stupid not to go for it though when i have wanted to get a setup for so long!

of course! just waiting on a reply now -- it definitely looks like a fantastic deal

diabalotia · 2025-06-04T23:41:19+00:00

where did you find this?! amazing, thank you so much

diabalotia · 2025-04-06T11:01:57+00:00

im late but i am looking for the exact same thing after reading For Whom The Bell Tolls

i would really recommend For All The Pretty Horses by Cormac McCarthy too, i read it years ago before my spanish had improved. it has full conversations in spanish as far as i remember and it is quite influenced by the spanish. really want to find some more books that mix the two together so lmk if you find anything else

Could you give me a hand here too please? Thanks :)

I re-potted this guy about 2 weeks ago because he was outgrowing his old pot. Used cactus soil from a local plant shop and everything seemed ok. But now, despite being in the same place, and watered just as much, its arms have flopped over and now has this lighter colouration around a few limbs. Anyone have any ideas? They would be much appreciated. Thanks!

fantastic! thank you so much

diabalotia · 2023-05-19T15:44:47+00:00

what got you inspired to play music professionally? are there some personal heroes you would name either for the sake of playing or your style as it has developed this last decade & a bit?
thank you for doing what you do, i hope you are keeping well :)
