Gentlemen:
We have read Item 4. of Form 8-K dated June 7, 1999 of Reading Entertainment,

sentences and the fourth sentence of paragraph one on page 1., the statements
contained in paragraph two on page 1., the statements contained in paragraph
three on pages 1. and 2., and with paragraph one on page 2.
To avoid any potential confusion that could arise from the manner in which the
Company phrased the disclosure in paragraph three on pages 1. and 2., we have
been informed by management of the Company that it intended to convey that there
were no "reportable events" as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(i)(v) of
Regulation S-K, and we agree therewith.
We have no basis upon which to agree or disagree with the statements made in the
third sentence of paragraph one on page 1. or in paragraph two on page 2.
/s/ Ernst & Young LLP
