- This comment was ill informed and incorrect. An Lanntair has no control over the cinema, the distributors of the films decide what is and is not shown, and even decide what time of day and how many showings of each film there will be. Mainland cinemas get the films first and An Lanntair can only get them some weeks later- but this is still several weeks before they appear on DVD. The Arts Centre was not built as a cinema and the funding that it receives is not intended to subsidise a commercial cinema.
