Cinema...Flower Bowl

This is a very fancy cinema!
Plush seats with little tables at the side for your glass of wine!
Double sofas roomy enough to take three people & even cushions for your back!
A very pleasant experience altogether!
Saw Little Women, a charming film from a slightly different angle!
If there is anyone out there who hasn’t actually read the book I would be surprised but if you haven’t it’s a little bit confusing I would imagine, it switches back & forth frequently!

You have a picture in your mind what the characters look like & generally all were as I thought except for Amy who had far too modern a face for my liking plus she was bigger than I imagined, good actress though!
Jo was perfect!

Three good things:
1. Allowed to take my coffee into the cinema.
2. My favourite book come to life!
3. We have another viewer, not in the position to buy yet but you can’t say no can you?

I’m not one that makes New Year resolutions but I vow to try & stand up straighter this year....slimming in itself!

I've read the book, and I loved it as a child. I must see the film. Your comments are interesting! Love the look of this cinema, too!

[Pat Knowles]

@jamibann It’s fantastic Issi....those shapes on the wall are flowers...would be very interested in other opinions of Little Women!

[Beryl Lloyd]

A book I also read as a child , after I had started reading English Children's books , my first books were in Welsh ! Sounds a swish cinema !

Confession time from me ... My name is Julia and I have not read Little Women.. I think I have started it at times but it must of been a real let down for my Mother .. as she loved this type of book ..

[Brennie B]

Ooh love this cinema!

[Maggiemae]

I'm sure I read Little Woman but can't remember the story really! We had a cinema in Oamaru just like this but they couldn't make a go of it and closed it down! No cinema at all now!

[Lou Ann]

That theater looks lovely. Directors always try to change things up when they make a movie from a book!

[Peter Dulis]

Very cool

[Sylvia du Toit]

Cool

[Dianne]

A very flash cinema indeed. I would like to see the movie but I don’t think Chook would appreciate it as much.

[Pat Knowles]

@dide No it’s a woman’s film I think Dianne although there was one man there.

[Pat Knowles]

@julzmaioro Ha ha Julz...you’re either a reader or not...I read this book as a child, loved it then & love it now!

[Pat Knowles]

@beryl it is swish Beryl, part of a complex with crazy golf, ten pin bowling, curling restaurants etc. Three small cinemas holding around 60 people in each.
@maggiemae That’s a great shame maggie but I suppose with our long winters we have more use of cinemas!
@louannwarren It was the same story but juggled about a bit!
The thing I noticed was that the picture didn’t seem that clear...might have been me....I did wipe my glasses!

[Pat Knowles]

@brennieb Complete with wine Brenda!

[julia]

Perhaps @dide should take me instead of
Chook and then I may read the book...

[Pat Knowles]

@julzmaioro Yes you might enjoy it....would be interested in what you think! It’s an American book written in the middle of the 19th century. It has the amazing actress Saoirse Ronan as Jo. Reading the book first is perhaps a better idea but certainly worth a watch.

[Joan Robillard]

Fascinating

[Bep]

This cinema sounds fantastic!

[Jane Pittenger]

Ooh I want to come

[bkb in the city]

Great looking cinema

[Diana Moss]

I love this book - in fact my two elder grandaughters, Amy and Beth were named after the two girls in the story!

[Monique]

Sounds great 👍

[Sue Cooper]

I’d like to go to that cinema. It sounds amazing.

[Pat Knowles]

@snowy Well there you are Dianna...well named, you should get your daughters to take you to see it ....would be interested to hear what your review of the film is.

[Lois]

Cool theatre! Will try to see Little Women!
