The distinctive, stripey legs, which kick skywards from the roof, make the Duke of York's Cinema a familiar landmark.Located on Preston Circus, the Duke of York's shows the best of current, classic, cult, independent and foreign-language releases.

Ditchling Film Society was started 27 years ago by local film enthusiasts and has been meeting in the village hall at 8pm on the first Thursday of each month (apart from August and September), ever since. Ditchling Film Society is renowned locally for its intelligent and eclectic choice of films, with special screenings, silent classics, discussions with directors, and refreshments.
Lewes Film Club
The Lewes Film Club is run by a committee of volunteer film enthusiasts and is a non-profit making venture. Their aim is to bring a interesting range of arthouse, classic and foreign films, not normally shown at commercial cinemas, to the residents of Lewes and the surrounding area at very low prices! The club was formed in 1986 by a group of volunteers who wanted to show some films in the All Saint Centre Arts Centre in Lewes, a town that no longer had a cinema. They run a season of 22 films from September to May mostly showing on Friday nights at the All Saints Centre, Friars Walk.
