London Rooftop Cinema

What do you do on a Tuesday evening?

You grab a box of sweet, crunchy caramel popcorn, climb up to a rooftop, slip under a blanket, and spend the rest of the night watching a romantic film — snuggling up with Ryan Gosling.

You wouldn’t mind calling that your typical Tuesday night, would you?

Sadly, there’s only one Eva Mendes in this world who is legally entitled to a Tuesday night like that.

But Rooftop Film Club in London has heard your pleas, ladies. They’ve created an evening that comes very close to the above. Even better — you’re allowed to bring your boyfriend. Ryan Gosling wouldn’t mind. Your boyfriend wouldn’t either.

Your boyfriend and Ryan Gosling for the night. Tell me something better than that.

Nuffnang asked if Fran and I would like to be part of an evening like this. Of course, we didn’t say no. We arrived at Stratford’s Rooftop Film Club on a Tuesday evening and promptly began the night with some rather pretty drinks.

As the evening faded into night, the lights on the rooftop transformed the hitherto hip East London scene into a wash of neon hues and colour gradients.

We then made a beeline for the popcorn, blankets and wireless headphones, found our seats, and waited anxiously for Ryan Gosling to appear on screen.

They also have other rooftop cinemas spread across London – Peckham, Shoreditch and Kensington. There are a good range of films and you can book your ticket online.

I say ride on the last ray of summer and get an experience like this quick.

In case you don’t fancy Ryan Gosling, there’s always Tom Cruise from Top Gun.
