‘WORLD’S SMALLEST CINEMA’ IN OAP’S HOUSE
Pic By HotSpot Media - ‘WORLD’S SMALLEST CINEMA’ IN OAP’S HOUSE -IN PIC- AN OAP film buff has brought the big screen to his home and built the world's smallest cinema in his BEDROOM. Movie fanatic Reginald Harding has decked his home out like a makeshift movie theatre with big screens, cinema seats and classic projectors as well as scores of large film reels adorning the walls. The 73-year-old knocked a hole in his kitchen wall to make space for one projector and converted a room in his Birmingham home to accommodate the four seater cinema. No tickets are needed when friends and fellow cinema enthusiasts come to see the historic equipment in action, which he picked up for a bargain when commercial cinemas closed. The CineMechanica projectors were made disposable when cinemas switched to digital instead of film reels.. SEE HOTSPOT MEDIA COPY 0121 551 1004
