A hearty THANK-YOU to everyone who ventured to the Princess for our re-opening week. It went very smoothly and the feedback we received was very positive. [If you haven't yet, read our message covering all the protocols and precautions we have put in place for you to safely enjoy movies again at the Princess.] This week we have some new titles and a handful of fun, 80s throwbacks. At the Twin, we open Atom Egoyan's new Hamilton-shot, Guest of Honour, starring David Thewlis as a conflicted health inspector, whose daughter has a mysterious past. Atom Egoyan will be providing a brief, virtual intro to the screenings!

We have brought back two of the most popular documentaries of the past year, Fantastic Fungi and The Booksellers. Just before we had to close in March, we began a run of Parasite in Black in White. We HIGHLY recommend it, so we've brought it back. We preferred this version, but would love to know what you think! Also at the Twin, be sure to catch Fisherman's Friends, a fun heartwarmer based on the true story of a group of Cornish fishermen who were signed to a major label and achieved a top 10 hit with their debut album of traditional sea shanties.

The ultimate ‘80s underdog story, THE KARATE KID still packs a powerful kick.

Filmed in Hamilton!

For many years, Atom Egoyan has been read (or misread) as a primarily cerebral filmmaker, when the fact is that all of his films are propelled by deeply felt emotional traumas, and his characters' corresponding inability to work through them.

Those. Aren't. Pillows!

Planes,Trains and Automobiles is a very funny film. The action begins in New York two days before Thanksgiving as Neal Page, a smart, snobbish and uptight marketing executive played by Steve Martin (perfectly cast), leaves his office to fly home to Chicago, where he’s due to spend the holiday weekend with his family.

"Schwartzberg’s film quickly proves to be one of the year’s most mind-blowing, soul-cleansing and yes, immensely entertaining triumphs.” RogerEbert.com

“‘We are the wisdom of a billion years,’ Brie Larson dreamily narrates over what is not a new Marvel epic but rather a documentary of epic proportions about what director Louie Schwartzberg hopes everyone comes to view as a genuinely earthly marvel: mushrooms.

Special Black & White edition of this year's Best Picture Oscar Winner

Parasite is for many already an undeniable cinematic masterpiece. But for director Bong Joon Ho, it was his desire to create such a work of art that drove him to cut a black-and-white version of film.

Nothing can beat Kevin Bacon’s original star-making turn as Ren McCormack, the original city-slicker dropped into a small town where it’s illegal to dance.

At first that law seems crazy, but nowadays, not so much... it's kind of illegal to dance (and we are OKAY with that!)

"Tarantino weaves a patchwork of crime film history into something shiny and new. Peppered with great moments eaten up by actors working at the top of their game, Pulp Fiction's witty writing, pop culture-surfing, gleeful amorality, cult tuneology and hyperkinetic energy has redefined the crime genre for the foreseeable future.
