Are there any films that wouldn’t suit the Secret Cinema treatment?
There are niche films that would be difficult to bring to life in that sense but we feel you can bring the Secret Cinema experience to a diverse range of films. Bugsy Malone, for example, is a colourful film with lots of iconic song and dance moments. That’s one version of Secret Cinema but the other is about building on the atmosphere of the film. So Wings of Desire was a different style of Secret Cinema. Across the weekend we had 3500 people sitting down to a subtitled German art film in a dank former cinema in Shepherd’s Bush. Although each film has its own challenges very few are out of bounds.
