Cinema du Parc is Montreal’s only repertory cinema, showing a variety of first releases, repertory, and cult films, presented for the most part in their original English version or with English subtitles. The theatre is managed by the Montreal Repertory Cinema Society, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting and presenting independent and repertory films. Its three cinemas are located on the lower level of a retail complex in downtown Montreal.

The complex underwent a complete overhaul in 2001 with new carpeting, new royal blue seats, a new sound system, new screens and new maroon-coloured sound-proof walls. The Cinema du Parc also plays host to international film festivals such as the International Festival of New Cinema and Media.

On August 3rd, 2006, Cinema Du Parc permanently closed and now sits vacant and unused. Although an effort is being made to sell the theatre it is doubtful it will ever reopen (being inside an indoor mall, I suspect it’ll eventually be gutted and turned into more shops, a restaurant or such).

With its closure, Montreal is now a city without any repertory theatres.
