Cubby Broccoli Cinema
Named in memory of Cubby Broccoli, the producer of the James Bond films,
this is our new cinema that complements Pictureville Cinema and provides
depth to many of our film seasons. As well as full digital sound and 35mm,
16mm and video, the Cinema can also be used as a preview facility for
filmmakers and for small conferences.

IMAX Cinema
The IMAX cinema, housed by the National Museum uses 70mm film, the world's
largest stock. Each frame is ten times larger than a regular 35mm film
frame and when projected, the screen image is bigger than the human field
of vision. The NMPFT can now show the latest 3D IMAX films alongside classic
2D material.
