This is the post in which I tell you I went to see a film and proceed to tell you nothing about it.

Secret Cinema day has been and gone.

Secret Cinema, for the uninitiated, is an all encompassing, secret, theatrical, cinema experience. You buy tickets knowing nothing about what lies ahead of you. Leading up to the start of the Secret Cinema season (the same event runs for a few weeks, with performances every evening as well as weekend matinees) obscure, indirectly related, clues (songs, pictures, video clips) are uploaded to Secret Cinema's Facebook page.

A couple of weeks before the event you're given a dress code and a meeting place.

The day arrives, you get up and get organised and find yourself, as I did on Saturday morning, queueing outside a library with hundreds of others, all dressed in men's suits.

You are then led into a world where the film is recreated and you are encouraged to join in. For the last event, earlier this year, the film was Prometheus and we found ourselves, in our boiler suits, examining life forms from other planets and experiencing life aboard our space ship.

This time around, as the event is still taking place, I am to keep quiet about where I have been and what I have seen.

Once the season ends, I can tell you more, for now I can tell you the films I saw was 2 hours and 22 minutes long, it was a film I already loved and the experience was, as it was last time around, phenomenal.

Tell no one.
