This film is one of my favourites because fifty years ago I was a young projectionists in a small cinema in the East Midlands, England. My future wife, was also a projectionist there (this was just after World War II, and the men were still away in the forces) and was where we met. I later became a movie house manager for several years before leaving the business with the advent of TV.
Although it was hilarious the film hit the nail on the head with many home truths. The projectionist and the cashier were always rivals and vied for positions of authority. I knew many projectionists who were fond of the bottle. The way the show was kept running in all adversities was also typical of real life in a small "flea pit".
A great film of days that used to be ! Incidentally my wife and I celebrated our golden wedding two years ago, and we did our courting at the movies on our days off.

Look closely at the lobby in "Majestic" and you will see it clearly resembles that in the 'Bijou,' even if the facades were much different. These films turned out very differently, but at least the architecture rewards lovers of theatres

This was a very good movie. I am a huge fan of (unfortunatly this wasn't a main role for him as suggested by the newer DVD case). Although he was an excellent supporting role/extra do not watch this movie expecting him to be the main character as I did the first time watching it. The movie had humorous situations and clever one liners. , who played Jean, was very funny and an excellent compliment to who plays Matt. The movie is also black and white (another aspect that I was not expecting but probably should have realized). This is a nice light comedy that is fun to watch with friends or on a date.

A delightful story of a young couple that inherit The Bijou -- a broken down movie theater -- and against their wishes make a go of it.

Virginia McKenna and Bill Travers play Jean and Matt -- the young couple.

I was familiar with Ms McKenna's work but Bill Travers was new to me.

I was half way through the film before I realized that Percy Quill the projectionist with a drinking problem was . Even though he was about 32 when the film was released he plays a little old man -- and superbly.
