I read it as ?7.50 per ticket (in advance) + a ?0.50 postage fee per order. So ?8 for 1 ticket, ?15.50 for two, ?23.00 for three, etc. ?10 per ticket at the gate, as you say.

Ive cast my vote and looks like we will be going.. YAY!! I dont think ?7.50 is too steep at all.. I love an outdoor cinema and its one of the things I miss from Australia as they have some gorgeous outdoor cinemas and trust me even with the conversion rate it still costs a hell of a lot more than ?7.50 to go to one of them there..

No offence but where have all of you been that you think ?7.50 is steep to go to the cinema? it is ?8.50 to go to the Ritzy on a Friday night and it doesn't have any of the charm that being in the park will.... I think that represents good value, especially as it is a small, local company, who we should all want to support.


I have voted for some like it hot as it is my favorite film of all time..... although I would watch any of them with joy!

Hey George,

Couldn't find any info on the website stating whether you would have seats available for those of us who aren't able (or can't be bothered ;) to bring picnic stuff with us.


I think this is a great idea, I shall definitely be there (as long as the film will be Breakfast or Some like it Hot).


I voted for Breakfast (although I own two copies of the film) because I would love to see Audrey on the big screen in all her glory at the beginning of the film in the Givenchy dress!!!


Hey, here's an idea, why don't you scrap the postage charge & allow people to collect their tickets on the day as long as they have proof of sale?

Can't remember the name of the burger place that used to be next to Liquorish before the place that's there now, but they used to have koyanisqaatsi on their screen on a loop :)


Edited to remove typo - what a saddo I am :)

You can always go to the park for free and watch it on a laptop (if you feel the need to be outdoors whilst watching a movie). There is nothing stopping you! Personally, I think Cinema is too expensive in general, and ?8.50 for the Ritzy on a Friday is a joke! As for popcorn and coke at ?6.50... Don't get me started!!

There's nothing like someone offering something a bit novel for the area to bring all the moaning minnies out.

"It's too expensive", "ooh, the films aren't the latest..", "a postage fee? how dare they."


Love the idea of occasional screenings in the park, great way to enjoy a classic in a lovely setting.


Don't like the films? Think it's too expensive? Fine. But why feel the need to waste your life telling people on a forum? (yes, I now too fall into that category, thanks a bunch)

Is EDF a secret hideaway for fans of Koyaanisqatsi? I've seen Philip Glass play an accompanied screening twice, and both times were, frankly, life-changing. Hard to appreciate what a revolutionary film it was in 82. Did you know director G Reggio is a trappist monk [and he was then too]?
Wombat why shouldn't people voice opinions? I think it's a lovely idea, I like the films, and there's a good chance I'll go, but I think it's a bit expensive for what it is. Why shouldn't I or anyone else say that, just as people who disagree will waste their lives disagreeing. For the record, if I wasn't posting I'd only be wasting my life doing paperwork.

    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
