Hello! This is an interview in which you will see the differences
between how the cinema was thirty years ago and how it is nowadays. The
interviewee is an adult so you will see a different perception of the cinema
than the teenagers have.
Did you use to go the
cinema when you were young?
Yes, I went to the cinema two or three times a week. In the past there
weren’t so many distractions so the people used to go to the cinema. The
sessions were double, which meant that the cinemas projected only two films one
after the other and the films were different each week, you couldn’t choose.
Did you only watch films at the
cinema?
No, I also watched films on TV on Saturday’s afternoon.
What type of films did
you use to watch? And which do you watch now?
In the past I used to watch adventure and western films. Currently, I
see all the genres excepting Spanish cinema.
Do you go to the
cinema nowadays?
No, I don’t, because it is very
expensive and I don’t have so much time. But if the prices were better I would
go to the cinema more often.
Do you like the type
of films shown on TV?
On TV most of the films are comercial and contemporany. I also like old
films and independent cinema. Nowadays there aren’t so many “big productions” like Titanic or La guerra de les galaxies and the films seem to be simpler and not
so elaborated..
What channel do you use
to watch the films? Why?
It depends on the film. First I check the schedule of all the channels on
TV and then I choose the film that I thing could be more interesting.
