And that’s why it’s not just a cinema experience – it is about all of us together from all walks of life, and being there together in the theatre and having a common experience. And that is what cinema does. It bridges walls, it breaks them down and allows people to be able to share that kind of commonality and experience… And I used to go meet with the students. I’d be like, we need theatres. You know, I want to I want to push you know, we need theatres in this country. We need theatres in that country.”
