cinema,
where you can lick ice cream (B.Y.O.) while you watch a movie with a Dubrovnik-moun-
taintop backdrop. This is a cheap, casual, and very Croatian scene, where people smoke and
chat, and the neighbors sit in their windowsills to watch the movie (most nights in summer
only, shows begin shortly after sundown; in the Old Town near the Pile Gate).
