EVENTS
Cinemas in
Amsterdam:
Amsterdam's
cinemas offer as balanced and substantial a cinematic diet as any
other European city, from Hollywood blockbuster junk food to the
indigenous flavours of home-grown produce. As in many major cities,
the cinemas can be divided into two main categories: First run cinemas,
which show exactly what you'd imagine, and Revival and art houses
(or 'filmhuizen'). Amsterdammers have a healthy appetite for foreign
and art house fare: the venues offer both a cosmopolitan mix of
art films, documentaries and retrospectives (as well as an informed
selection of the more intelligent Hollywood flicks) in characterful
settings. With the exception of the Uitkijk, all have marvellous
cafés, while The Movies, especially notable for its lavish
art deco interior, also has an enchanting restaurant.
It's advisable
to reserve your tickets in advance if you think the movie of your
choice is likely to be popular (on opening weekends, for example).
Cinemas usually charge a nominal fee of 50¢, though credit
cards are not accepted by any cinemas in Amsterdam.
All films are
shown in the original language (normally English) with Dutch subtitles.
Films in Dutch are indicated by the words 'Nederlands Gesproken'
after the title.
