Enough already of the Electric Cinema! We all know it's really cool there,
but other theaters are thankfully starting to follow suit, offering their clientele a little more than Revels and large Coke.

For instance, did you know that One Aldwych has a fabulous, intimate screening room? On Friday, Saturday and Sunday evening you can have an aperitif and three course dinner in one of the restaurants and then head for the screening room to watch a movie – all for about £35. Sunday matinees include the requisite bloody mary and brunch before the film.

Or how about the Curzon Mayfair which has just had it's first make-over (about time for the 66 year-old theatre). It now has a second screen and a new bar. While her sister, the Soho Curzon, is closed for her own re-vamp, the Mayfair screens are showing the double bill Sunday Rep's and as ever a selection of choice foreign and independent movies.

Just remember to shut your mobile off.
