Have you missed the chance to see first-run alternative, independent, and foreign films on the big screen? So have the founders of the non-profit Paradise Sisters Film Society: It�s time to bring repertory cinema back to Halifax! The Paradise Sisters Film Society has already been greeted by a very enthusiastic community response, and volunteers are now working to transform a terrific downtown venue into an earthly haven for film lovers. Our goal is to open The Paradise Cinema, a comfortable, accessible theatre running great films seven days a week. It will house quality sound and projection, a concession stand full of tasty treats, and up to 120 happy moviegoers per screening. Within walking distance of some of Halifax�s most popular restaurants, clubs, hotels, and shops, The Paradise Cinema will become a valuable addition to the city�s cultural center. We�re shooting for a September, 2002 opening. To make this happen, we need your support. By providing Corporate Sponsorship or becoming a Founding Member for $100, you will become instrumental in making The Paradise Cinema a reality. Or, if you want to become a future member, email us, (address below) and we'll put you on our contact list.
