As topic for this essay I did choose to write about the aspects of the experiences of cinemagoers. At first I will compare Australian and European Cinemas and afterwards I will point out two different points of views, one of an European spectator and on of an American one. At last I will mention some other personal experiences with the Cinema. You will see that there is a concentration in the cinema marked and that the smaller cinemas disappear. A development more seen in Australia than e.g. in Germany. An other point will be the number of the movies produced in the own country.
