Christchurch's cinema stalwart retires at 91

From Nights, 10:30 pm on 1 November 2022

Finding something you love doing and doing it for the rest of your life - there's a goal for all of us right there.

That's precisely what Lang Masters has been doing for the past six decades, showing movies and doing what he loves.

The 91-year-old is one of Christchurch's biggest movie buffs, and the former owner of the much-loved Hollywood Cinema in the suburb of Sumner 

He finally retired on Saturday after years of working the concession stand, seven days a week.
