The Bean-o-meter

After each HFS screening we carry out a film evaluation in the form of a Bean-o-meter. We ask the audience to rate the film from 0 (awful) to 4 (awesome) by putting a bean in the appropriate numbered cup as they leave the auditorium. This gives us an idea of how much you’re enjoying the films so we know how we’re doing with the season’s selection!

We present the results of the Bean-o-meter at the HFS AGM and as it helps us to understand the film tastes of our members. We use the results to select appropriate films and develop future programmes. This season’s results will be added on this page after each film.

You can see the results of previous seasons in the season archive.
