I always remember my first naughty film, it had Cliff Richard in it, it was called Expresso Bongo. My step mother took me, don't think she realised it had bare ladies bosoms in it, boy did I brag at school the next day.

Bambi. Still have the psychological scars to prove it!

YAIYAM

Sasquatch in a small Welsh town in 1977.
I can remember it very well because we were queing up to go and see Star Wars and before we got to the front of the que Star Wars was full so we went into Sasquatch instead.
They made the seating stand out of solid pallets i.e the first row of seating on the floor the 2nd row on 1 pallet the 3rd row on 2 pallets etc etc

Return Of The Jedi, my brother took me to Grays Odeon

I'm so glad it was a good film and not Bambi or something

Jungle Book, if I remember correctly, and the aunt who took me laughed embarrassingly loudly from start to finish.

I watched the film again years later and realised I missed whole sections, because I had been so distracted by my aunt.

Best cinema childhood memory was at a proper old-fashioned picture house in Whitley Bay around 1970, seeing the original Italian Job when it came out. I was so awestruck by the whole experience - not just the film, but the whole magical adventure.

Bambi. Was so traumatised I didn't see another Disney film until the age of 18, when I'd been assured that Toy Story featured no animal death. I still haven't seen most of the Disney classics.

When I briefly worked at my local cinema they were showing the 20th edition of ET- a little girl came out convulsed in sobs bawling, "HE'S GONE!!! ET'S GONE AND HE'S NOT COMING BACK!". I felt for her.
