    I love that film. I even had the dinky toy version of Chitty with folding wings. My mum gave it to a Jumble sale a few years later along with loads of other vintage toys that are now probably worth a small fortune. Oh well.

      At Houghton (le-Spring) we had quite a modern 1 screen cinema in a THEN new building where I saw 101 Dalmations (original) with my mam and little sister. It had a pre-film about a boy and a pigeon. At the interval my mam went for a coffee, the lady asked where she was sitting and then brought her coffee in a china cup and saucer! Its now a snooker hall (and has been for alongtime now).

          i was seven and my stepdads son took me to see Star Wars when it was rereleased in Britain for the summer of '78, it cost 50p.

          it was a double feature with an italian made sci fi film called 'Humanoid' which starred richard keil who played jaws in the bond films.

          i got a kia-ora to drink and some sweets. best saturday ever

              There are a few films I remember seeing around 1971 when I was about 5 years old. Of those the one which really impressed me was "Where Eagles dare". I've watched it many times over and still love it. Its good old wartime adventure from start to end. The cinema I went to see it at was called the "Godiva" in Canley in Coventry. I now live in tile hill just down the road and pass the "Godiva" every day which is now a Casino. I must go in the old place sometime to see how its changed. I'd love to hear from others who have fond cinema going memories.
              Please share the nostalgia.
              My grandma lived in Tile Hill as long as I knew her. We used to get off the bus and walk through the woods to her house in a cul-de-sac.

                The first film I remember seeing was Greece. I remember we went on the red bus to Coventry and had to queue around the block to get in.

                  In the cinema it was possibly the Jungle book or Dumbo in the early 70's.From what I gathered from my parents they did not interest this little kid much. What they told me I was more at home with films like war of the worlds and many of the films that appeared on telly that had dinosaurs in them or some other type of monster. One cinema film I remember fondly was one of the golden voyage of Sinbad followed a few years later by the eye of the tiger. I still have a passion for monster movies ,sci-fi ,fantasy and a bit of horror.

                      It was either Dumbo or Pinnochio, I can't remember which one came first, all I know is they both freaked me the hell out!
