PLEASE READ THIS!
We receive accessible listings directly from cinema head offices. Unless urgent amendments are required, listings are updated on the website every Thursday. We take great care to ensure the listings are timely and accurate but can take NO RESPONSIBILITY for postponed or cancelled shows. If cinemas inform us of changes, we will tell you via this website. If they don't inform us, we can't inform you.
Many cinemas schedules are "SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTIFICATION". Sometimes the files necessary for a subtitled or described film are not available, or are not delivered to the cinema on time. The only way to be 100% sure is to check with the ACTUAL cinema before you plan a visit. But DOUBLE check, preferably with a manager. We recommend that you should always request confirmation that a show is definitely on.
We cannot provide cinema tickets. Please contact your cinema directly for these. For suggestions, corrections or just to contact us please use our Feedback page: http://www.yourlocalcinema.com/feedback.html

And more!
On release in many cinemas: foreign language films with English subtitles.
Including:
Night Watch subtitled (15)
Subtitled throughout, apart from a small prologue at the start, and an epilogue at the end!
Subtitled wherever it is shown! Please check your local listings for screenings.
Imagine a Russian made version of Underworld, with strong hints on 28 Days later and the Matrix. Part sci-fi thriller/fantasy and part mystery, NIGHT WATCH delves into the murkiest waters of Moscow street-life. A visionary horror fantasy film featuring a dazzling mix of special effects, adrenaline-fuelled action and suspenseful terror, this film shows the pulsing energy of recent Eastern European cinema.
"Just after we've lived through LORD OF THE RINGS and we can't even imagine another movie spellbinding us, along comes Timur... an astonishing visionary and NIGHT WATCH is an epic ofextraordinary power." Quentin Tarantino
"...the bar has been truly raised... extraordinary filmmaking!" Danny Boyle, director 28 DAYS LATER
It contains the most startling set of subtitles ever to grace a foreign film. Indeed, they are so artful and stylized, one wonders why no one ever thought to make subtitles part of the movie experience as a whole, rather than just slap standard white text throughout.
Please check your local listings for screenings.
Many cinemas regularly screen subtitled foreign language films. including Metro Cinema, Derby (many BSL interpreted ones with a live British Sign Language Interpreter too), National Portrait Gallery St Martin's Place, London WC2 (regular BSL-interpreted talks too) NFT South Bank, London, ICA The Mall, London SW1, Stoke FIlm Theatre and many more.

NEWS!
UK Film Council Digital Screen Network
Thanks to the UK Film Council, around a quarter of UK cinemas will be equipped with new digital projection equipment over the next year or so. In return, cinemas will be required to show a broader range of films on a regular basis.
These systems can also display subtitles. Adaptations can be made to include audio description features too.
Subtitle and audio description 'files' are readily available for most popular cinema releases, so it is hoped that these 'access' features will be utilised, to enable hearing and visually impaired people to enjoy digital cinema.
But there's no guarantee that cinemas with new digital projection equipment will actually utilise these 'access' features. We recommend that deaf organisations / groups / individuals create total awareness of this 'access' issue, to ensure it is addressed as soon as possible.
