Save the Cinema

A true story that's both inspiring and cringeworthy, "Save the Cinema" tells the tale of Liz Evans, a hairdresser from Carmarthen, Wales, who single-handedly saved her local Lyric cinema from closure in 1993 through a campaign that enlisted the help of Steven Spielberg. The film boasts an impressive cast, including Jonathan Pryce and Samantha Morton, but its awkward tone and questionable Welsh accents have left some viewers feeling like they're watching a made-for-TV Christmas special.
