Hallo Gillian
I just looked up True as a Turtle as I'd never heard of it and I'm a bit of a film fan. It seems to be available on DVD.
I used to go to the Capitol (no longer a cinema) and the Lyric in Carmarthen. It was a big treat to sit upstairs but of course a lot cheaper downstairs and we might have Kia-Ora or an ice cream in the interval from the woman with the tray. Not like these days where people have a year's supply of popcorn and gallons of cola with them.
Things aren't all bad these days though; my local boutique cinema here in London has armchairs with space for your gin and tonic and tapas!
The Globe cinema in Cardiff was close to where I lived as a student, on Wellfield Road (Roath). It's a bar or something now. Then, you could rely on the seats being half-broken and the film slowly breaking down halfway through. Great fun.
