		Building the cinema is only half the job; we also have to provide the infrastructure that makes the movie-going experience so pleasurable - like having a cup of coffee, playing video games, eating out etc. We either provide the facility ourselves or make sure there's a complementary business that's located close by.
		Australia is one of the world's leading countries when it comes to cinema development.
