When we were young...
we used to frequent the Phoenix in East Finchley. Virtually the only time we went was for the late-night double-bills. They'd start at (I think) around 11pm and there were loads of great combos: Fritz the Cat + Heavy Taffic; Aguirre Wrath of Gods + The Mission; Pink Flamigoes + another Divine film. Can't remember the others but I saw Apocolypse Now, Catch 22, Taxi Drive, Dirty Harry, Last Tango in Paris etc. etc. etc. there. I recommend emailing or phoning up for a chat with the management there (http://www.phoenixcinema.co.uk/) and getting some ideas from them.

The other thing you could do is try to join the 'City Screen' group of art-house cinemas - safety in numbers.

Let us all know if anything comes of this.
