Let’s Go to the Cinema!
1) Today it is possible to buy a video and watch a film at home, but millions of people all over the worlds till prefer to go their town or city cinema for a “night out”. And before television arrived in people’s homes, a visit to the cinema was something really special and truly wonderful.
2) The Golden Age of film-making and going to the cinema was between 1930 and 1950. Film stars seemed like kings and queens. Cinemas were “picture palaces” where, for the price of a ticket, you could find yourself in a magical world. In that world anything and everything was possible.
3)Nowadays cinema audiences are much smaller and usually younger than the audiences of the Golden Age. M any of the “picture palaces” are now multiscreen cinemas with four or five small cinemas inside one building.
4)Today’s films appear on video, and then on TV after cinema audiences have seen them. But some films don’t look so good on TV, they need a large screen and only then you can really enjoy them. Television can’t do it . You may agree or disagree with it, but for many people the cinema is still the only place to watch a film. Besides, the cinema is the only place where you can watch a brand-new film before your friends do it and decide if you like it .
