5-6 lines down in the stack we see

at ticketReservation.<init>(ticketReservation.java:114)
at bookAngels.actionPerformed(bookAngels.java:163)

the line numbers don't match the code you posted, so you need to look at the constructor for ticketReservation line 114 and see which variable is null.

Well since I had a lot of time on my hands :P , I studied every line of code, the problem looks to be on line 109 you have reinitialized the variable 'jlbMovie', while on line 119 you are setting the bounds for the text field 'jtfMovie' which has never been initialized, so is null.

I am guessing the O.P. intended to initialize 'jtfMovie' on line 109.
