This is a blog about the business side of cinema from an exhibition perspective. It looks at everything related to the making, distributing and exhibiting films from a commercial point of view. I took the name, Splendor, from a marvellous 1989 Marcello Mastroianni film about a small independent cinema.
I am the General Manager of the Duke of York's Picturehouse in Brighton. I also am the Business Development Manager for the Stratford Picturehouse. This is a Picturehouse cinema and the oldest purpose built cinema in the UK.
I attended film school in New York City, both at NYU and at the New School University. I worked briefly in film production with my brother Tony, who is a focus puller. I have an MA in Arts & Cultural Management at Sussex University. I also sit on the CINECITY Film Festival Board. I've written a Film Quiz book, for The Guardian, Intellect Books, and various blogs/publications.
This blog reflects the personal views and opinions of me, Jon Barrenechea and are in no way the views and opinions or policies of City Screen or the Picturehouse group. Just in case.
