I write as someone who tried qnd fqiled to save a local cinema.
So the story of Liz Evans triumphant effort is really uplifting. However it is badly let down by the script and the pantomime villain of Tom the Mayor.
Furthermore as has been noted elsewhere the showing of a nitrate print of How Green Was My Valley is courting disaster. Nitrate prints are only shown under controlled conditions as they are highly combustible and the fire can not be extinguished by water. So this could have demolished the buiding and its audience in a very quick time.
