Eve goes to the cinema by Annie Fish
Eve, and her beau, Reggie, are shown the way into a cinema by an usherette and are pleasantly surprised to see how dark - and private - the auditorium is. Cinemas were considered potential dens of iniquity during the First World War! As an entertainment that took place in the dark, there were concerns that it might damage the moral fabric of the nation, and a Council for Public Morals lobbied for stricter censorship, while supervisors were installed in picture houses to ensure no indecent behaviour took place in the cheap seats. Date: 1918

EDITORS COMMENTS
In the midst of the tumultuous backdrop of the First World War, a moment of respite and romance unfolds within the dimly lit confines of a cinema. In this evocative photograph by Annie Fish, titled "Eve goes to the cinema," we find Eve and her beau, Reggie, being guided by an usherette into the cozy, private auditorium. The year is 1918, and cinemas, as popular forms of entertainment, were under intense scrutiny due to concerns over their potential to corrupt the moral fabric of the nation. During this time, cinemas were often viewed as dens of iniquity, with the darkness providing a veil for indecent behavior. The First World War intensified these concerns, as soldiers returning from the battlefield sought solace in the movies, and the fear of moral decay spread. As a result, the Council for Public Morals lobbied for stricter censorship, and supervisors were installed in picture houses to maintain order in the cheap seats. Despite these concerns, Eve and Reggie appear blissfully unaware of the external turmoil as they step into the welcoming embrace of the dark auditorium. The usherette's gentle guidance leads them to their seats, and the couple settles in for an evening of shared enjoyment. The photograph captures a fleeting moment of intimacy and escape, offering a glimpse into the romantic allure of the cinema during a time when the world was anything but private or predictable.
