As this is a blog about the things I am interested in, I didn't think I could not tell you about what I can only call the best cinema ever! Yes I am making that statement and I am sticking by it!
The Aubin cinema is based in the basement of the Aubin and Wills store in Shoreditch, London. Now you might think a cinema in the basement of a cinema sounds anything but good. But let me reassure you this cinema is a hidden gem.
The cinema itself only seats about 30 people which makes it cosy and intimate. Unlike the other generic cinemas where each screen is huge and you get old chairs and popcorn as a treat, at the Aubin cinema you get individual armchairs or sofas with cushions and blankets. Of course you can have popcorn here but they also offer a glass of wine for some further indulgence.
As the cinema is so small it only shows one film at a time but this does include the big blockbusters or smaller niche films. They also have special events such as Edible cinema where you can enjoy the experience of watching a film and having special things to eat which relate to different parts of the film and enhance your viewing experience.
I watched 'Killing Them Softly' here starring Brad Pitt and I really noticed that I paid more attention to the film and got into it much more than at another cinema. I think this was because I was comfortable and the fact it was quiet and cosy made for much less distractions.
I can't recommend this cinema enough and will definitely be going back. Though don't tell too many people I still want to be able to get a seat myself!
