I obviously don't know the people involved, but it's like when I read about the Coke takeover of Innocence. I'm sure the Innocence guys try to convince themselves that it's for the best and that it just means their product will reach a wider market without compromising their principles. Maybe they even manage to believe it for a while.


But at the end of the day they were offered a lot of money and it was too much to turn down. Principles be damned.


I'm not condemning them for it, I'd do exactly the same thing.

East Dulwich Picturehouse...the stuff that dreams are made of...a true dream come true. We've passed planning, build it and they will come. Let's just hope that building starts soon and everyone get's their memberships in. A Community Cinema for the whole Community, what a great amenity to the area!

A proper local flicks - I hope they spray a Wrestlers HotDog smell throughout the auditorium and the seats are sticky with KiaOra.

That's not always KiaOra Maxxi

I do hope there will be a good selection of gluten/dairy free confectionary. Fair trade, of course.


Oh, and if there's chocolate, it simply must be single estate, 80% cacao.


And frehsly pressed juices, please.


I'm so glad we'll have such a marvellous resource for the whole community to share.

Hiya all


Re; Picture house.


Is this the same "picturehouse" organisation as in Brixton Ritzy? That is to say, the "picturehouse" of high staff turnover, rock bottom wages, regular strikes and demo's, lost saturday performances, etc etc.


An organisations like Starbucks, which cultivate hip images of themselves, but act like unreconstructed capitalists?


The same organisation that is owned by a large cinema chain? (Odeon isn't it?)


Can't we do better than that?


Until Picturehouse gets its staff relationships and wages sorted out it should be boycotted. ( I Do!)


Yours

    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
