As you may know from our weekly Movie Houses of Worship feature, we love to celebrate cinemas and the act of seeing films on the big screen. Part of that column focuses on these favorite theaters’ repertory programming. Most of the businesses and non-profit organizations we showcase play classic films, some of them solely doing so. And that’s because so many of us like to see these oldies on the big screen and with fellow cinephiles — even titles we own on Blu-ray and/or have seen a million times. We hate to see any of these cinemas close down (see tomorrow’s MHoW), and we love to see communities band together to save and re-open local theaters, both for the preservation of the history and the continued experiences that shall happen there. Fans of the feature and hopefully other readers will be interested in a new documentary titled The Rep. It...

Chances are if you're reading this, it's because you love film. Whether it's Texas-centric films, or the occassional Hollywood blockbuster that you enjoy reading a review about, it doesn't matter. Either way, you're here and you're here because you love movies. The Rep understands that love, and the documentary focuses on three people who were willing to risk their livelihood to share that love with the people in their hometown in Canada. Alex Woodside, Charlie Lawton, and Nigel Agnew are the proprietors of the Toronto Underground Cinema, a single-screen repertory theater that caters to the film nerd community who crave seeing films the way they were meant to be seen.
Backed by a single investor, in a theater hidden underneath a giant condo building, the underground cinema sits away from the hustle and bustle of the busy streets, visible to no one. That didn't stop the three cinephiles from trying...

Here’s some great news about two films centering on repertory theaters. Last year, we highlighted Morgan White‘s documentary called The Rep which uses the story of three friends who started a theater in Toronto to contextualize the state of the rep theaters today. Well that movie is now done, has a new trailer, poster and is being submitted to [...]...

No matter how many times you've seen a movie, you've never truly seen it unless you've seen it on the big screen. Cinema was created to be seen in a theater with a group of people. It's an experience. An event. And with modern technology, that cultural legacy is slowly slipping away. Not at repertory theaters, though. Repertory theaters are theaters that primarily show classic movies the way they were meant to be seen. On the big screen. You've read about a bunch of them here on /Film. The Alamo Drafthouse [1] in Austin, Texas. The New Beverly [2] in Los Angeles, California. Film Forum [3] in New York. These theaters, among others, build a reputation on showing fantastic old movies every single night. These days, though, people care less and less about old movies and repertory theaters are struggling to stay afloat. That's the focus of an in-production documentary called The Rep.
