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.

  • 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.
