This will reopen as the CineStarz Deluxe Taschereau at the end of May featuring a CSX screen.

“Ciné Starz a fait l’acquisition des deux anciens cinémas Guzzo à Longueuil, à Place Jacques-Cartier et dans l’arr. de Greenfield Park. Ceux-ci devraient ouvrir leurs portes d’ici la fin mai.

Les deux cinémas seront nommés CinéStarz Deluxe Longueuil et CinéStarz Deluxe Taschereau. Des films en français et en anglais y seront projetés.

Cette acquisition fait suite à la mise sous séquestre et à la fermeture des cinémas Guzzo.

Les cinémas seront rénovés et seront dotés notamment de nouveaux sièges «de luxe» inclinables, ainsi que des écrans et un son «à la fine pointe de la technologie», indique un communiqué.

«Cette expansion représente plus que l’acquisition de cinémas – c’est une réaffirmation de notre croyance en l’avenir de l’exploitation des salles de cinéma, a affirmé Bruce Gurberg, chef de la direction de Ciné Starz. Nous investissons dans les communautés et la technologie pour nous assurer que nos cinémas restent des centres culturels essentiels.»

Ciné Starz a aussi acquis en février l’ancien cinéma Guzzo à Dollard-des-Ormeaux, devenu le CinéStarz Deluxe Des Sources. Son ‘ouverture est prévue cet été."

“ MEGA-PLEX TASCHEREAU 18

I don’t know exactly where I am on the South Shore. On Taschereau Boulevard, everything is mixed together: a succession of cloned restaurants, separated by huge parking lots. But here I am in front of the cinema. The facade, marked by time, also displays its share of burnt-out light bulbs and graffiti under the awning. However, inside, surprise: it is not the gloomy decor I expected. Better still, a line stretches out in front of the canteen. A handful of moviegoers, faithful to their post, ready to butter their fingers. Life, finally.”

Sorry, never mind the employee part since they are private security guards not some teenage employee.

Cinema ordered to pay $10K in damages for search

A Quebec court has ordered a cinema to pay $10,000 in damages after staff searched patrons' bags and turned up smuggled snacks and birth control pills — and in the process violated their privacy rights.

The incident happened in 2007 when a woman took her two daughters to Cinemas Guzzo in Montreal to watch the film “Shrek the Third,” said CTV Montreal’s Rob Lurie.
