Abstract: Abstract This chapter investigates cinema types, film distribution patterns and consumption in five regional capitals in Italy in the mid-1950s. It aims to develop a framework of comparative analysis, extending previous research of filmgoing in Italy, comparing Rome with the cities of Milan and Turin in the North and Naples, and Bari in the South. Evidence of regional differences in film preferences is presented.
