Arts

Central London has a strong culture and arts scene. Go inside and you’ll find experiences of treasures old and new. The cinematic legacy of the UK is growing, having been established by great directors and carried now by a slew of modern creatives.

Prince Charles Cinema backs the medium as something old, and something new. It shows cult classics and invites fans to review their favourite movie again. Film goers have raved about its enthusiasm for filmmaking, making friends in queues, stalls, and toilets.

The world inside is an open, diverse kaleidoscope of locals and Hollywood pilgrims. There’s a nerd for any genre. There’s a buff for any trilogy. The latest blockbusters get short thrift unless you’ve seen it again. The chatter fills the halls and screens as in any charming cinema.

The old look is vintage but not value to many, though. It keeps the posters going as a lost trade. The bold signage tells a different story. The name is going down as an anachronism as we speak. Around the corner is any number of noodle boxes you might like, abutting China Town like a desperate, hungry tourist.
