Elles non, mais elles ont peut etre de la famille qui.
T'as pas tort
Ma mère est trop jeune pour avoir vécu ça mais je lui ai demandé et voilà ce qu'elle a trouvé:
Trouvé sur un forum de discussion entre gens qui se remémorant leur souvenirs des années 40. Je t'ai mis deux témoignages. Tous se rejoignent. D'après toutes mes lectures et selon mon propre souvenir on ne vendait que de la glace, en petits pots et en "wafers" C'était une barre de glace entre deux gaufrettes
There were usually about four usherettes downstairs and upstairs in the bigger cinemas and they shone their torches to show you where to sit and where there were empty seats. They were needed more in those days because many people would arrive for the film in the middle of the show so it was very dark inside the cinema and people could not see clearly where the spare seats were.'
'The usherettes would sell ice cream during the interval. They would make their way down to the front of the auditorium and stand there with the ice cream tray around their necks. I think there was only usually vanilla ice cream and it was in a tub with a wooden spoon to eat it with. I think the usherette would often be standing with the ice creams in the dark and when you bought one you used to have to hold your change in the light of her torch to see if you had the right money.'
Our local cinema was "The Forum" at Southey Green.(Now a Tesco Supermarket).All us school kids were only allowed to go on Friday nights(being no school the next morning) and on Saturday morning for the "Kids" cinema. Only the posh people went upstairs in the cinema then.Once inside you stared at the red velvet draped curtains,waiting for the film to start.Hollywood films were the favourites with "Gone with The Wind""The Third Man" "On The Town"and "Singing in the Rain".If the film broke down in the middle,everyone booed, and stamped their feet.And if anyone kissed in the film there were woolf whistles.
At the interval those lovely ice cream ladies with the trays loaded with ice cream tubs and wafers,stepped briskly down the stairs and stood at the bottom in front of the screen.When the film was over,we ran out of the cinema,either riding an imaginary horse(if it had been a Western)or singing if it had been a musical.
