By focusing on one particular city, Nottingham, I formulate an analysis of the place that cinema has occupied in the city's history. Utilising the local press as the primary source enables me to situate the discourses on the cinema building and the practice of cinema-going within the broader socio-cultural contexts and history of the city.
  • Cineworld/City Screen Merger Inquiry

    Cineworld/City Screen Merger Inquiry

    APPENDIX A Terms of reference and conduct of the inquiry Terms of reference 1. On 30 April 2013, the OFT sent the following reference to the CC: 1. In exercise of its duty under section 22(1) of the Enterprise Act 2002 (‘the Act’) to make a reference to the Competition Commission (‘the CC’) in relation to a completed merger the Office of Fair Trading (‘the OFT’) believes that it is or may be the case that – a. a relevant merger situation has been created in that: i. enterprises carried on by or under the control of Cineworld Group plc have ceased to be distinct from enterprises carried on by or under the control of City Screen Limited; and ii. the condition specified in section 23(4) of the Act is satisfied; and b. the creation of that situation has resulted, or may be expected to result in a substantial lessening of competition within any market or markets in the UK for goods or services, including the supply of film services. 2. Therefore, in exercise of its duty under section 22 of the Act, the OFT hereby refers to the CC, for investigation and report within a period ending on 14 October 2013, on the following questions in accordance with section 35 of the Act— a. whether a relevant merger situation has been created; and b. if so, whether the creation of that situation has resulted, or may be expected to result, in a substantial lessening of competition within any market or markets in the UK for goods and services.
  • Acquisition by Terra Firma Investments (GP) 2 Ltd of United Cinemas International (UK) Limited and Cinema International Corporation (UK) Limited

    Acquisition by Terra Firma Investments (GP) 2 Ltd of United Cinemas International (UK) Limited and Cinema International Corporation (UK) Limited

    Acquisition by Terra Firma Investments (GP) 2 Ltd of United Cinemas International (UK) Limited and Cinema International Corporation (UK) Limited The OFT's decision on reference under section 22 given on 7 January 2005 PARTIES 1. Terra Firma Investments (GP) 2 Ltd (Terra Firma) manages a number of private equity funds. On 2 September 2004, Terra Firma acquired Odeon Equity Co. Limited (Odeon), the largest cinema exhibitor in the UK, with 95 cinemas. 2. United Cinemas International (UK) Limited and Cinema International Corporation (UK) Limited (collectively UCI) operate multiplex cinemas in the UK. Prior to the merger, UCI was the fourth largest cinema exhibitor in the UK, with 32 cinemas nation-wide. Its UK turnover in the year to 31 December 2003 amounted to £123 million. TRANSACTION 3. On 28 October 2004, Terra Firma acquired sole control of UCI through its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The transaction completed on 28 October 2004. The administrative deadline expires on 7 January 2005. JURISDICTION 4. As a result of this transaction, Terra Firma and UCI have ceased to be distinct. The UK turnover of UCI exceeds £70 million, so that the turnover test in section 23(1)(b) of the Enterprise Act 2002 (the Act) is satisfied. The OFT therefore believes that it is, or may be the case, that a relevant merger situation has been created. RELEVANT MARKET 1 Product market 5. The parties overlap in the supply of cinema exhibition services in the UK, in the acquisition of film exhibition rights from film distributors, and in the provision of facilities for film premieres.

  • Exhibition, Authenticity, and Film Audiences at the Prince Charles Cinema

    Exhibition, Authenticity, and Film Audiences at the Prince Charles Cinema

    . Volume 13, Issue 1 May 2016 ‘Watch like a grown up … enjoy like a child’: Exhibition, authenticity, and film audiences at the Prince Charles Cinema Richard McCulloch, University of Huddersfield, UK Virginia Crisp, Coventry University, UK Abstract: It is tempting to view the rise of event-led cinema as a symptom of shifting audience preferences – the inevitable result of cinemagoers increasingly seeking out ‘immersive’, ‘participatory’ and ‘experiential’ film screenings. The research presented within this particular article aimed to explore the appeal of such screenings by focusing on audiences at the Prince Charles Cinema (PCC) in London – a venue that is widely known for hosting sing- alongs, quote-alongs, and other participatory events. Our results, however, were surprising. Respondents to our questionnaire readily subscribed to a form of cinephilia that embraces a wide variety of tastes, but largely rejects participatory aspects of event-led cinema in favour of what they deemed to be a more authentic cinematic experience. Audiences repeatedly emphasised the superiority of the silent, reverential film screening, and many felt that the PCC’s greatest quality was the way in which it reminded them of how cinemas used to be, not what they might one day become. Ultimately, the article demonstrates that cinematic events are by no means the only option available to audiences who crave alternatives to ‘mainstream’ cinemas. We call for a reconsideration of the immersive and experiential dimensions of traditional cinemagoing, and a greater emphasis on the viewing conditions that facilitate an affective bond between audience and film. To us, the search for alternative cinema experiences seems to be more about the desire for cinema to get better at what it already does, not for it to change into something entirely different.

During the tour you will visit the sites of historic cinemas located in Leeds city centre, and we encourage you to look in detail at the buildings, as many of the cinema’s features still exist amongst Leeds’ surprising diversity of beautiful Victorian and Edwardian architecture. As you enjoy the tour, please be aware of your surroundings and of other pedestrians, and please be careful of traffic. The tour will take roughly 1 – 1 ½ hours and is at ground level throughout. As we tour around the city centre, there are many places to stop and have a break if you wish. Let’s go and visit our first cinema! You should now be standing just inside Leeds Station entrance to the south side of City Square, next to the doors at the very end of the main concourse, by the News Theatre. At one time there were over 60 different cinemas in central Leeds.

    Odeon Cinemas Limited Held on 7 June 2013

    CINEWORLD/CITY SCREEN MERGER INQUIRY Summary of hearing with Odeon Cinemas Limited held on 7 June 2013 Background 1. Odeon Cinemas Limited was primarily involved in film exhibition in the UK, the Republic of Ireland and Europe. 2. Odeon also had a joint-venture relationship with Cineworld through Digital Cinema Media (DCM), which worked with media buyers, clients and the creative community to programme advertising on screen. It had briefly had a small distribution arm in partnership with Sky but had not continued in that business. Business aims and performance measures 3. Odeon encouraged people to spend as much time in the cinema as possible on each visit and monitored spend per customer. It took many opportunities to widen and refresh its retail offer. 4. It might commit to increasing advertising or promotion in order to attract people to films or at times where demand was likely to be slacker. 5. Odeon measured its success in relation to any film in terms of share of revenues but also in terms of share of numbers attending. This was assessed against local catch- ments. Distributors expressed more interest in revenue share than audience share. 6. It was also important how customers rated their experience overall. 7. Advertising revenues normally depended on how many people saw the advertise- ments. Pricing 8. Many customers were not sensitive to ticket prices for the most popular films. For example, some people would want to see a blockbuster in its first weekend regard- less of price. Conversely some would elect not to see certain titles however they were priced.
