Christopher Nolan and Steve McQueen to UK government: ‘Urgent money needed’ | Entertainment

entertainment">The help that already exists for closed cinemas is nice, but not enough, according to the filmmakers. “There is no doubt that the industry will survive and thrive when there is support, but the need for financial assistance is high,” they write.

entertainment">Cinemas in the United Kingdom had to close their doors for several periods last year and are now closed. They have already received support from the government and the smaller halls have received additional compensation. Larger chains, however, have not yet received additional money. “British cinemas are on the verge of collapse. We urgently need targeted financial support to ensure that future generations can also enjoy the magic of cinema. ”
