It seems to happen every single time I do manage to get a sky ticket that it sends me two confirmation emails with two different booking numbers. No wonder these screenings fill up so quickly and are then half empty, most people probably don't realise and don't cancel the spare.

Hello!

I've recently joined and looking forward to a 2010 full of free films! Already I've baggsied tickets for Precious, It's Complicated and Avatar (although I gave these last ones to a friend as the screening was in London and I'm in Scotland!).

Anyhow, just wanted to recommend this film highly. Saw it at the opening of the Aberdeen film festival and, despite the cheesy premise, it manages to be a moving, enjoyable and remarkably un-schmultzy look at a father's struggle to raise his sons. I think it's mainly thanks to a great turn by Clive Owen who captures brilliantly the conflicting emotions and concerns of a parent left on their own.

Top stuff - enjoy!

I clicked on the Times screening link to find out the cinemas but I don't seem to get anywhere, I constantly get redirected and can't find my way out! What am I doing wrong?

The Times link is saying I need to register and on the form page, the counties available, do not have London as a choice... What to do?!

I did that too, I thought even if it's an old link it might get me to the new screening, but no such luck.
