THE NEW AUDIENCES
Figures just published reveal that attendances in picture theatres in America have increased during 1929 by 15,000,000 a week, a figure 50 per cent, higher than was expected. One English exhibitor confided to a paper a few days that the talking pictures had increased his patronage by 5,000; that is to say, not that he has quite so many more attandances I a week, but that he finds that 5,000 more people in his town, all of whom were previously not filmgoers at all. now come to his theatre at regular intervals.
