Who Are Daniel & Andy?
"We spent much of our youth in Toronto’s art houses and repertory cinemas. Watching everything from Sunset Boulevard to Eraserhead, from Army of Shadows to In The Mood For Love, we developed a strong appreciation for viewing exciting and innovative films with an audience. Participating in that tradition and sharing those same experiences with others means a great deal to us.
We have owned and operated Toronto’s Fox Theatre since 2007, and Kitchener’s Apollo Cinema since 2014. We also work as programming consultants with other Ontario independent cinemas including Kingston’s Screening Room."
What Are Their Plans?
"We share Bruce’s affection for international cinema, documentaries, and independent films, and we expect to continue programming in that vein. We do plan to make some additions to the offerings available to you at The ByTowne.
There’s more information to come, but in addition to developing a subscription/unlimited viewing membership, we are also working on launching virtual cinema options for remote viewing of select titles, and plan to obtain an AGCO license for those who like to enjoy a glass of wine while taking in a film."
