Tilda Swinton is honorary patron.〔http://www.filmhousecinema.com/support/seat-dedication/〕 ==History== The cinema began life when, in 1979, the disused St. Thomas Church building was converted into a 100 seat auditorium (now cinema 2) accessed via a side entrance on Morrison Street Lane.〔http://www.filmhousecinema.com/about-us/〕〔http://film.list.co.uk/cinema/794-filmhouse/〕 The front of the building was listed and remained inaccessible until in 1985 when a new 280 seat auditorium and bar were added and the front entrance opened. It is located in Lothian Road and is part of the Cultural Quarter along with the nearby Usher Hall and Traverse and Lyceum Theatres.
