This is the first study of the social history of the movies in
Britain's tropical empire. Drawing on a wide array of sources, it
reconstructs the emergence of movie-going as a form of public
leisure in British territories from Singapore to Guiana. The book
demonstrates that, by the eve of the Second World War, movies had
become woven into the fabric of urban life, and were infiltrating
into the most remote corners of the countryside. As the movies grew
in prominence, their popularity sparked debates about empire and
identity that resonated across the globe.
