This is owned by France-Film, which sold all other theatres to Cineplex Odeon in 1984. In 1970 an second cinema was attached to the side called Pierrot and in 1972 the third cinema called Chevalier was added. In 1987 it became the St. Denis 3 and in the early 1990’s switched to live performances only. France-Film and Cineplex Odeon built the Quartier Latin 17 on the right side of the St. Denis facing Emery St. It is the leading French-speaking cinema outside of Europe.
