Does anyone know who owns this property? I’d like to chat with them about a theatre restoration project.

Hi Everyone,
I am currently in pre-production of a feature documentary entitled “Sacred Cinema”.
The long and short of it is that I am going to trek across the planet in search of the world’s most unique movie theaters. By in large in Canada (where I am from) at least, I think many cinemas have lost the plot when it comes to providing a meaningful cinema experience. The documentary will touch on cinema etiquette and what theaters are doing to improve audience cooperation. I also want to take a look at the worlds kookiest home theaters and get an inside peek at why staying at home is a reasonable option for many people. I want to visit a wide array of cinemas. From a shanty village in India to a luxurious cinema palace in New York. Please if you have any suggestions for cinemas to feature I am open to suggestions as I am shortlisting as my research comes to an end in the next couple weeks. I am not looking for pure visual esthetics, though visually it helps if the cinema is a little offbeat – I want to find theaters that have different, odd or strange policies that help make the movie going experience memorable.

I will be launching a website in the coming weeks to create some buzz around this project. I will also be seeking some assistance during production in my shortlisted cinema’s towns and cities.

On another note- thank you for this website as a resource. It has assisted me in my research greatly.
Keep up the good work.

Best Regards,

Mark G. Power
