How to use "Matinee" in context?
The matinee is a short, classic film shown in the afternoon, at the end of the day's cinema screenings. These films, which were once a standard feature of American cinemas, are now relatively rare, but they remain popular with movie-goers.
The term is derived from the French matinee, meaning "morning show". In the early days of cinema, cinemas would open at 2pm, but often showed only first-run films until 7pm. So, from 7pm until 9pm, the cinema would show second-run films.
