I really should watch more films, that’s true! The last time I can remember going to the cinema was about 2007—it would have been to see The Lives of Others which, if I remember correctly, isn’t the most visually stimulating of films, though it certainly has other merits.

I’ve watched films since then, of course, most of them probably on an iPad (that panoramic 9.7 inch display!) The problem is that, quite apart from the question of a visual impact, I find that “going to the cinema” has become a very uninviting experience.
