W: Sure. Cube Movie Theater has been around now for 11 years.

It's located in what used to be a hat factory.

它位于一个曾经是帽子工厂的地方。

M: Oh, really?

M： 哦，真的吗？

W: Yeah. There used to be many hat factories in Britain until around the 1950s.

W： 是的。直到20世纪50年代左右，英国一直有很多帽子工厂。

But fashion changed and most people stopped wearing hats. So practically all of those factories had to close down.

但时尚发生了变化，大多数人不再戴帽子了。因此，实际上所有这些工厂都不得不关闭。

This one in particular was closed for 47 years before we transformed it into a movie theater.

在我们把它改造成电影院之前，这家影院已经关闭了47年。

M: I see. I hear there's something else that makes your theater special.

是什么让你与其他影院不同？

W: We are the only movie theater in the whole country that only shows foreign movies.

M: Is there enough demand for that? I would have thought that in London, most people don't speak foreign languages.

M： 有足够的需求吗？我本以为在伦敦，大多数人不会说外语。

W: Sure. There's enough demand. The fact that we have been open and in business for all these years proves it.

London is a very large and international city. There are lots of people interested in watching such movies.

Furthermore, I might add, all movies come with English text at the bottom of the screen.

此外，我可以补充一点，所有的电影都在屏幕底部有英文文本。

So even if you don't understand what the actors say, you can still read it.

所以，即使你不理解演员们说的话，你仍然可以阅读。

M: Of course. What movie are you showing right now?
