  • Some cinemas accept you showing them on your phone, but the ticket does say to print them out. Most libraries only charge like 10/20p per print out. 10/20p for 2 cinema tickets is a bargain, and means you wont get turned away
  • Hidden Figures was amazing. Such a great story line, and some brilliant acting. Was a nice surprise to see two people from Moonlight, as total different characters as well

    I did think of the library but the council closed ours 2yrs ago. Think I'll phone the cinema I've had no luck trying to contact SFF.
  • Hidden figures is one of the best films I've seen in ages it was both funny and inspirational. I almost cheered at some points. I thoroughly recommend it, it has a message for everyone.

    ... and either there were loads of tickets available OR very few/nobody was interested so late on ......

    ... since Birmingham didn't go "not available" until 18:29 and 50+ seconds ....

    and for Glasgow - "available" until at least 18:59 and 35 seconds!

    BOTH basically expiring as each screening commenced!
