A bit off-topic but..................One of the great perks of my retirement home is FREE movies 7 days a week.
I just saw a great British movie titled "The Ladykillers"........Highly recommended, ROGER
Re: Free Popcorn
Hi Roger
I do believe the Lady Killers features an old wurlitzer 78 jukebox if my memory is correct ... It's sad that it's the only thing that reminds me of this film.
EDIT : just checked out Ladykillers and it wasn't the movie I was thinking of... but now I will have to watch it at the weekend as I love Peter Sellers ...
On that subject ... another great British film from 1957 is "BOOBY TRAP" and this features a few slot pleasures.
Not only does it feature a vintage pinball and bandit but also a Wonderful Ditchburn MK2 Juke box
Set in a seedy Gentlemen's club with gambling and drug dealing .... oh how them times were sooooo bad
All the best ... Dicky

Re: Free Popcorn
There’s an upcoming movie coming out soon that will have some lovely old games in the background of another British gentleman’s club from the '80s. Well I hope they get some good screen time.

Re: Free Popcorn
It's one of the best loved from the golden age of British comedy films produced at Ealing Studios between 1947 and 1958.
Some other unmissablè classics are Kind Hearts and Coronets, Whisky Galore and The Maggie, but for slot machine content, you should watch Barnacle Bill.
