What is up with the Duke of York's cinema?
Why is it giving all this time - any time - to The Simpsons Movie and to the latest Bourne movie when these are being shown elsewhere?
Shouldn't it be showing such things as Two Days in Paris and Delerious?
Any more of this, I think I'll lose the habit of picking up the programme and shall wait for the DVDs.
The Duke of York's is on notice. It can choose to be a good repertory cinema or it can go the way of the Odeon with its absurd claim to be "fanatical about film".

Over in Chichester there is the latest Film Festival from the 23rd to the 9th.
It includes Two Days in Paris.

It looks as if LTNS is trying to play as much havoc with Chichester's cienma as he is with Brighton's eating habits.
That is the Chichester video room, not the cinema. |

Thats good News. They still have to show the Simpons Movie just like the D.O.Y. does. |

Looks as if a fortnight in Chichester provides what the Duke of York's takes six months to do.
There should be a Brighton Film Festival.
the palce is poorly supplied with cinemas. |

If my memory (such as it is) serves me correctly, there used to be a Brighton Film Festival. I would think there is the same number of cinemas now as then. Difference being the were not all in a couple of complexes and thus had a larger overall capacity. |

According to the Website of Picturehouse, the company that bought the Duke of Yorks in 1995, they should be playing "Tell No One", "Golden Door", "La Vie En Rose" and "Waitress". However, if you look at their "What's On" page it seems like maybe the Simpsons/Bourne films are just a summer interlude - something for the grockles until all the art students come back from their backpackingaroundtheworldwithonlytwopairsofunderwear holidays.

| And now the Duke of York's has a week all day of that dull-sounding French version of Lady Chatterley's Lover which has already been filmed too many times... |

| Julie Delphy in Two Days in Paris, written and directed by her, has been praised everwhere and is hsowing in most places - but Brighton misses out in it. Pitiful. |

| The Australian film Kenny about a portaloo installer is being shown at Odeon. I should have thought this was something which would have found its audience at the Duke of York's. |

You are Not a Expert in the Distribution Group. Some Films have a projection that demands bigger Networks they get that info from other nations that Sold out of the DVD's.

As Nazz has said, Kenny is a small-scale, entertaining film of a sort which fits in very well with what one expects at the Duke of York's. It is probably lost in a cubby-hole at the Odeon.
Are Brighton's temporary portaloos properly licensed now? |

No sign of Lars and the Girl and I'm Not There coming to the Duke of York's.
Very disappointing that Two Days in Paris not shown. |
