I paid my customary visit to Cinemarsh on Sunday 27th March 2022, for an 11am screening of “The Phantom of the Open”, starring Mark Rylance and Sally Hawkins. I was given a warm welcome by the staff at Marsh Academy’s reception desk, which doubles as the Cinemarsh ticket and concessions counter.

In a nice touch, in the half hour or so before the screening, vintage adverts from the USA (for the record: Crest toothpaste, JB watch bands, Halo shampoo, Hotpoint electrical appliances and Hills Bros coffee!) and a Pink Panther cartoon (“Pink Trumpet”, from 1978) were screened, together with a short promo film about Cinemarsh. Interestingly, that made the direct point that ticket sales often do not cover the distributors' charges, and urged patrons to buy something from the concession counter and/or make a donation. This message was repeated on an A-board near the reception desk.
