Hayley Mills thinks that television will beat the watching movies in the cinema – FOX 28 Spokane

Hayley Mills thinks that television will never take the place of movies.

The Parent Trap star believes that going to the cinema has a different focus than watching series in your living room.

The 75-year-old actress told the Metros 60 Seconds With featurette: I dont think television is ever going to take the place of movies and that experience. You have a whole different approach to a film when youve sat down in the cinema. Youve got that enormous screen and wonderful Dolby sound. There is a focus you dont have when you are at home because you go have a cup of tea or have a pee and you pause it.

Hayley revealed the sad story of her Juvenile Oscar that she picked up for the film Pollyanna getting nicked.

She said: But, Ive been given a new one as my little Oscar was stolen 30 years ago. In those days, they didnt give children a full-size Oscar. The first of these small-size statuettes was given to Shirley Temple. The last one was given to me in 1961. It was Shirley Temple who was suppose to give it to me but she wasnt there. So now I have this beautiful golden Oscar, full size. So there is a happy ending to my sad story of losing my little one.

The Compulsion star shared how members of her family including her late mother, the screenwriter Mary Hayley Bell and sister Juliet Mills, 80 share a love of playing roulette but she doesnt get the appeal.

After being asked if she was a gambling fan, Hayley said: No, unlike my mother and my sister, who love it. Roulette! You cant drag them away from the roulette table. It doesnt interest me at all. I dont get it. My sister even has a system.
