The good old days
No not the retro TV show, though that might be fun.

The responses above all seem like the Scala cinema in Kings Cross in the '70s and '80s. All night Star Trek or Monty Python. Freaks was shown back to back with Eraserhead every month. Every art house film from the beginning of time. It was really really tatty. The stalls had been removed, and you could kip on the mouldy carpet with a lager can for a pillow. It was fan fucking tastic. Only problem was, it could not support itself, and now its just a shell. A tear wells up every time I pass it.

But, there is a travelling cinema that shows arthouse and just past their first release films that goes around the south of Hampshire and Dorset. Their shows are full, or just about, wherever they go. The clientele consists of senior type people, who would not dream of going to a multiplex. When we went to see Slumdog Millionaire the other month, I was the youngest (I'm ancient).
