I like both the Ealing Project and Filmworks but on all the occasions I’ve been the auditoria have been much less than half full, and these were for mainstream movies rather than art house cinema productions. This has been the case reported to me by other people who’ve been to both venues.

Maybe the problem lies with cinema attendance being substantially lower than pre-pandemic levels, and Ealing residents simply don’t feel the need to fill either cinema regularly. Ticket prices will be a factor (even the Tuesday night bargain offers at the Project have had low turnouts). Ironically there are more interesting films on release now than in previous years dominated by endless Marvel franchise movies as their ilk, although that might mean the younger generation who like those films aren’t going as much.

Worrying times for any cinema business.
