A cinema also known as a movie theater or the movies (only in North America), also known as a movie house, or the pictures, is a venue, usually a building, for viewing motion pictures ("movies" or "films"). Most cinemas are commercial operations catering to the general public, who attend by purchasing a ticket. The film is projected with a movie projector onto a large projection screen at the front of the auditorium. Some cinemas are now equipped for digital cinema projection, removing the need to create and transport a physical film print.
