90 Years of Film Making in Burnley

Believe it or not, Burnley has been involved in making films since 1931 when ‘The Burnley And District Amateur Cine Society’ was formed, the group holding its first meeting in the town’s Mechanics Institute. The following year the Cine Society began screening its own home-made films in cinemas across the Burnley area to public audiences.
