Sobre IBD

The author was born in Holywood, County Down, and has lived all his life there. For a period of time he worked in the Holywood Cinema and he believes that, since it has now gone but was once a part of the fabric of Holywood, it is worth recording its existence. He decided to write this little book and give readers a short idea of how the cinema operated, its history and his personal experiences. The author takes a brief look at some of the people involved in what was our local cinema and their jobs, as well as what was involved in keeping the films showing.Along with this he has added some other bits of local news, personal memories and changes that have happened over the years in the town, recently and in the past.
