The Revue Returns
After much patient waiting (and after $74,000 in donations), the Revue Film Society announced tonight that the Revue Cinema will re-open its doors on Thursday, October 4, 2007.
Instead of having a set screening lined up, the Society is asking fans to vote for what the first film ought to be on their website, until September 19. You can choose between Some Like It Hot!, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Touch of Evil, Casablanca, Rear Window, and The Graduate.
Also, if you're down with helping out, the Society is also looking for some volunteers "to do some wiring, drywalling and plastering, painting or cleaning, drop us a line." And, they need a dehumidifier. So if you love getting your hands dirty or hate getting your hands humid, e-mail them at volunteer@revuefilmsociety.org or call 416-531-9959 to help out.
Oh, and welcome back, Revue.

I'm voting for "The Matrix". Since I'm under 60 I have never seen those films.
I highly recommend Rear Window, at the very least.
i was at a candidate's debate in High Park Tuesday and overheard the team of Liberal candidate, Sylvia what's her name? take full credit for "single-handedly" reviving the revue. couldn't believe it.
