"The Movie Theatre is Dead, The Movie Theatre is Alive!"
Gone are the days of the grand old movie houses. It's the day of the cavernous, big-box, suburban comfy-chair mega-theatre.
The Metropolitan has languished unused in Winnipeg's downtown for decades. As evidenced by the marquee, The Met closed shortly after the 1977 run of Carl Reiner's "Oh, God!"
Life as a celluloid projection: Larger than, fragile, flammable, rolling on, transitory.
