                                              Little  Sсreens

                                              Luсy Cavendish
                                              |'ve  aIways  loved  films.  l remember  going  to the  сinema  with  my

                                              рarents   or my friends  as  l got  oIder.  l stiIl  go to  the  сinema  now,  and
                                              if my friеnds  don't  likе  whatЪ  on,  l go on  my own.  l really  don't  mind
                                              it,  Ьut  l simply  prefer  watсhing  fiIms  with  other  pеople.  So when

                                              l heard  aЬout  a girI who  had  regular  film  nights  for  hеr friends,  l
                                             wonderеd  about doing  something  simiIa1  Ьut  perhaps  with  a wider
                                              group,  and thatЪ  how  Little  Sсreens  started!

                                              Onсе  l'd had  the idеa,  l researсhеd  film-сlub  websites  and

                                              disсovеrеd  you  сan  show films  in all  sorts  of loсations.  l worked  out
                                              how  many people  l needеd  to help  run  a сluЬ, then asked  a сoupIe
                                              of friends  to help. For example,  one of  us found  a pIaсe  for  our  first
                                              event,  and  another  sorted  out еquipment.


                                              l сhose  a { ilm  that  l thought  might  Ьe  popuIar.  EVen so,  l сouldn't
                                              Ьelieve  it when  nearly  forty  peoplе  turned  up! Sinсe  then,  people
                                              keep сoming  to  join,  espeсially  after  an  interview  l did in the |oсal
                                              paper.  l advertise  on soсiaI media  too,  but  almost  all the members

                                              say that  friends  told  thеm  about  the  сIuЬ, whiсh  is good.

                                              As well  as watсhing  a film,  we hаve  quizzеs  and  snaсks,  so  itЪ a good
                                              deal  сompared  to  going to  a regular  сinema.  We triеd  disсussion
                                              sessions  after  eaсh  fiIm,  Ьut  it felt too formal.  So  we  deсided  to  ask

                                              people  to  сhoose  from  a list  of possibIе  fiIms  to plаn  the  next  evеnts.
                                              |'d  like to show  a series  of fiIms  foсusing  on a partiсular  aсtorЪ  work,
                                              or. iil.,  from  different  parts  of the  world.  I went  to  an  international
                                              festival  reсently,  and  saw some  interesting  things,  so watсh  this spaсel
