Your Cinema Needs You: Headlines Poster

I switched out the posters at the Monarch Theatre this week in anticipation of the new February screenings of my feature-length documentary. The left side of the theatre's entrance features the new Your Cinema Needs You poster, and the right side features the new "Headlines Poster". This special edition poster is comprised of some of the headlines generated about Your Cinema Needs You across Canada over the course of the production. It seemed a fitting statement to finally display this on the front of the Monarch Theatre. 

 

1960s Kodak Brownie Camera

I've never been much of a show off my new equipment kind of photographer. I've always been more of a show off my new, old equipment kind of photographer. I picked up this early 1960s Kodak Brownie today. Complete with original box and unused flashbulbs, I'm a real sucker for that vintage Kodak branding. She's a real beauty!

New Screenings Announced For February

Following the 7th sold out premiere screening of Your Cinema Needs You, I thought I should probably grab a quick picture as the Monarch Theatre emptied one last time. Two and a half years of bringing this documentary across the finish line had finally been realized in this moment and it hit me as it all wrapped just how crazy this had actually been.

The success of the premiere solidified two things in my mind. 1. The ambitiousness of the documentary had paid off; the film worked (and) 2. Being able to see the documentary about the Monarch Theatre in the Monarch Theatre had only elevated the entire experience.

I honestly didn't think we'd find the opportunity to do this again given how many moving pieces there are regarding the wide release, but while this is still in the works, I'm excited to finally share that we've secured new screening dates at the Monarch next month!

7PM on February 14th, 15th, 16th, and 17th (Wednesday to Saturday). Make it a date night or just an excuse to get out and see the Monarch again. Whatever the reasoning, you're sure to come away with an appreciation for what's been hiding in our own backyard this entire time.

Tickets for these new screenings of Your Cinema Needs You at the historic Monarch Theatre will become available starting at 8AM this Friday.
