I really love Broadway Market’s Film Shop. I like the orderly geekdom of the alphabetical shelves (sorted by director as well as genre). The fact that the slightly dippy and oh-so-lovely team that run it that are always ready to give a bit of advice or steer you in the right direction.
I like the fact that the colours are muted and it’s not an in your face Blockbuster, I like that weird sausage sofa thing, and the fact that kids can sit on the counter. Mostly, I like that the people mooching in there love films and live local and support this little place.
What I don’t like is the fact that I had to pay a £21 fine today because I’d been hording Synecdoche, New York for a week. Will I ever learn. Quick answer: no.
