As cinemas slowly begin to reopen around the country, many are relying on old faves to bring back a (socially distanced) audience. On the Gold Coast, Home of the Arts (HOTA) will reopen their cinemas with 12 screenings a day from 6 June, and while they haven’t announced a program at the time of writing, CEO Criena Gehrke says that it cater to a range of audiences, and will ‘touch on some of our favourite films, through to award-winning masterpieces, as well as family movies.’
Drive-ins are coming back into favour as the ideal socially-distanced communal cinema experience, and Cinema Nova is also looking at making its return with old favourites, announcing that their opening weekend would feature screenings of The Room and Cats.
