READING · 15 soru
I’ve wanted to work in the film industry since I first saw Star Wars. I guess I was eight or nine years old. By the time I was at university I was studying film production and writing film reviews for the student newspaper. The paper gave me one free ticket each week and I would save up any spare cash to go to the cinema again. The cinema near my university was a normal multiplex, and that’s where I made a discovery … cinema food is really bad. I mean, it’s seriously unhealthy and totally over-priced. The choice at my local cinema was: plastic sweets, dusty popcorn and a bucket of fizzy drink. That was it. Personally, as a cash-poor student who also wanted to keep his teeth, I used to hide my own food in my rucksack. No-one ever told me off, but perhaps the cinema staff were being kind to me (the skinny boy with a notebook who came three times a week). So why do cinemas do this? The answer is, of course, money. Cinemas aren’t really in the business of selling films, they’re in the business of selling popcorn. Film studios take a percentage of tickets sales, but the cinemas are allowed to keep most of the money from food. For example, a box of popcorn is about 85% profit and food overall gives around 40% of the profit for a cinema. Selling salty popcorn makes perfect sense because this makes customers thirsty and then they spend more money on drinks. Some companies are trying a different approach. Recently in America I tried one of the many ‘Fork and Screen’ AMC cinemas, which aim to serve a proper meal during the film. Customers sit at tables with cinema seats. The food is nothing extraordinary — mainly burgers and chips — but the price is the same as in a standard restaurant. I’m afraid the price was the best thing about it. To begin with, the food arrived just before the start of the film. The sound of cutlery and eating ruined the first half an hour for me. And then the waiters came round to (very politely) take drink orders. ‘Would you like a drink, sir?’ ‘No, I want to watch the film.
So can food and cinema ever mix? Well, Edible Cinema is one example that succeeds in an interesting way. When the audience arrives they are given a small tray containing eight closed boxes. During the film, a light at the side of the room tells you when to open and eat the contents of each box. Edible Cinema aren’t trying to fill your stomach, or even give you a tasty snack. The food is weird, even shocking, and is designed to make you think about the characters’ emotions or the scenery. This is not a cheap night out (tickets were £38 and I had to eat some dinner at home afterwards) but I’ve been talking about my Edible Cinema experience for months now, and I’ve been watching social media to find out where their next screening will be. If you’re a ‘foodie’ or a cinema fan, I recommend giving it a try.
