The Nickel is a tiny grindhouse cinema thatās just opened in London. Itās by far my new favourite cinema, feels authentically sleazy and intimate and riddled with film nerds and perverts.

At my local indie cinema for a projection of the new Nosferatu, infinitely grateful I have a place like this I can go to see new stuff and incredible programming!

Support our independent cinema screens!! I am a Londoner so I have memberships with BFI, Prince Charles and Picturehouse and it is totally worth it, especially as watching movies takes up a good chunk of my personality and I dislike watching things at home. Advanced screenings, access to smaller films, discounted tickets are all great but itās also just nice to support these places who do so much in preserving the British independent film scene which is currently in an abysmal state. Curzon, Everyman, The Garden, Genesis, ICA and many more are also all great and I would be members of them all if I could. Big up BFI especially because I probably wouldnāt have got as far in both my career and love of film without them, and the Northampton Filmhouse in my hometown which was my first independent cinema.
These are of course London based examples but I encourage everyone to support their local independents š«¶š»

Iāve referenced my favourite independent movie theatre on here a couple of times, but I feel so passionately that it needs its own spot.
This theatre is so awesome. I donāt even have any photos of their vintage movie memorabilia in their concession booth or the comfy couches on the upper floor. Since my boyfriend has been gone Iāve been going here at least once a week. Sometimes with a friend, often alone. For a membership price of $16 I save $4 on each ticket, itās insane.
I can always be confident I will like the movie if I go to the Mayfair. They sometimes have newer additions, but only the really good ones. Theyāre hosting a John-Luc Godard month in July and I know itāll be life changing.

I think everyone should start their day by breaking conventions, just a sprinkle of chaos in the morning & you feel absolutely fabulous!
