I just spent a week in the US, in the bustle of New York city, to be precise, and that's left me with something of a cultural hangover, after a decent enough time to get used to all the Americanisms of life over the pond. Whenever I go to the States, I tend to have a few small things I try to do in amongst the sight-seeing, and going to the cinema is one of them.
Firstly, it's a great way to take a break from all the walking and standing around gawping in museums, at famous locations, and while just getting around. Mostly, though, it's a useful way to remind myself that everything really is bigger in America. The AMC cinema at the Lincoln Centre in Manhattan proves that fairly comfortably by offering up what the internet informs me is the second-biggest screen in the US, just pipped by another in California.
