La Charrette
La Charrette was for several decades the smallest cinema in the UK. It closed in February 2008.
A tiny, 23-seat venue, sited in a back garden in the town of Gorseinon, near Swansea, 'La Charrette' (French for 'the carriage') was built from a disused railway carriage. With flock wallpaper and hand-operated curtains, 'La Charrette' began showing films in 1953.
== History ==
The cinema was originally constructed and run by Gwyn Phillips, an electrician who fell in love with the movies in his youth while working as a projectionist. After Mr Phillips died in 1996, 'La Charrette' was kept open by his widow, Rita.
A meticulously kept, hand-written record of every film shown at the cinema reveals that the first movie to be screened there in 1953 was ''Reluctant Heroes''. That same year, locals were able to see ''Oliver Twist'', ''King Kong'' and ''Winchester ‘73''. Later decades saw the screening of ''The French Connection'' and even the controversial ''Straw Dogs''. More recently, ''Saving Private Ryan'', ''Elizabeth'' and ''The Queen'' were shown.
