Forever grateful to my Dad for keeping my first ever cinema ticket
In my latest episode (no.116) with cinema historian and tour guide,@nigelcsmith, we talk about first cinema experiences. For Nigel it was 1981's Superman II. And he even has the ticket stubb to prove it! What was you first cinema experience? https://t.co/6YeTAyiZZ6
