The winners for the moms with a Style Wish promotion, put on by Palace Amusement and The Gleaner Company, were chosen last Thursday afternoon at the cinema's downtown offices on Blake Road.
The promotion invited mothers who visited any of the five cinemas across the island in recent weeks to submit the answer to two main questions: Why do you go to the movies? And what is your style wish?
The winners will be treated to a specially designed day of pampering geared towards fulfilling their style wish, topped off with an evening at the cinema on Mother's Day.
Judges, columnist Tony Robinson, Damaris Mayne from Gold Jewellers, Paula-Anne Porter-Jones, broadcaster from RJR, and Melody Aarons of Chic Lines Hair Designs got deep into the entries, offering witty banter back and forth. They went as far as reminiscing about the days at Carib in the 'cave', the back of the theatre, and succulent beef sandwiches made with hardough bread. Entrants were given points based on their reason for going to the cinema, feasibility of their style wish, legibility of entry, availability for make-over.
Three mothers were chosen from each cinema. The winners include:
Other sponsors who will facilitate Moms' wishes include: Salon Innovation, Elan for Women, Beyond Jewellery, Soft Sheen Carson, Woman's Panadol, Ribena, Diva's House of Beauty, Anne Martin, The Hair Zone and Master's Unisex Salon.
