David Bowie Is Happening Now was an interesting experience - the cinema version of the museum exhibition which I didn't go to see (sold out v quick). I might do this again - plus points are the lack of crowds, good views of items, and extra interviews and comments - though you miss the thrill of being there, the smells, taking your time and following what you're interested in, and for this exhibition the immersive sound that follows you around. Some of the big screen footage did give me chills down my spine.

There's a petition about the proposed Arts Picturehouse sale/closure, and I think they're working on a similar thing for Cineworld.
