Glasgow Film Theatre
12 Rose St, G3 6RB
1937, James McKissack and WJ Anderson II (Cat B) Scotland's original independent cinema, the GFT, is housed in the former Cosmo Cinema. Opened in May 1939, the Cosmo was known as a continental cinema when it first opened, and this love of cinema from across the globe is very much alive in GFT today. Showing over 700 titles across the year, Glasgow Film Theatre and its associated film festivals is the most successful independent cinema in Scotland.
GFT is home to Glasgow Film Festival, now one of the top film festivals in the UK, which celebrated its 16th edition in 2020 with record breaking audiences of over 43,000 in attendance.
