Default Cinema in the Original Language

I love going to the cinema in general but I find dubbed films very annoying.

Does anybody know of any cinemas in the North East where they show first run films in the original language?

Currently I go weekly to the Odeon in Vicenza however this cinema is 100 years old and sounds and feels it although it is quite charming and the staff very nice and polite. I watched Scoop last night and next week they will have The Departed.

Or maybe another Cineforum in English somewhere that you attend?

There's Cinema Edera in Treviso but it's also old and small - but charming. They run original lang films on a Thursday

Am having difficulty posting this - is it because I'm trying to include a link?

When you find the cinema site, choose Rassegne from the menu at the top then Lingua Originale.

Thanks Ragazza!

I had misspelt the name so I didn't actually find the website previously. But everything's rosy now!

Now a decent route finder to get me from Montecchio to Treviso in 30 minutes!

I was being a bit too optimistic!

30 minutes being the maximum travelling time the wife will allow to go and watch a James Bond film (for me) or a Hugh Grant film (for her).

Maybe if I drive like an Italian...

Sorry I don't know. I'll be in Bologna in May for a bit so will do some research.

So far only the Odeon in Vicenza and another cinema in Treviso are the ones that do regular English screenings that I know of and also a cinema/screening room in Padova do some screenings in English now and again.

Tonight the Odeon in Vicenza will be screening Casino Royale as the last film in their English Cineforum. The cineforum consists of 20 films beginning from October with the season ticket costing €50.

Any news on English screenings in Vicenza or Verona would be much appreciated.

Ciao tutti!
