Judi Dench avoids watching films in theatre due to her fear of the dark

Washington, February 6 (ANI): Claustrophobic actress Dame Judi Dench has revealed that her fear of the dark keeps her from watching films in theatres.

She has revealed that she can get through a screening only when her pals are around.

She even says that she has not seen many a classic film owing to her fear of being trapped in the dark.

"I used to have claustrophobia inside the cinema because I didn't like it in the dark. I missed out on films as a kid. Now I'm better watching films on DVD with friends around than on my own," Contactmusic quoted her as saying. (ANI)
