LIGHT HOUSE GOING, GOING, GONE!

Today's Irish Times has an article on the worst secret in Irish cinema. The arty Light House cinema in Smithfield is closed down. Too far out of the city centre, too difficult to find if you don't know where it is, and the films had too many subtitles. So, despite the best era yet for Irish cinema it's bad news. Apparently the landlord doubled the rent! That's Ireland for you.
