We want to make sure we give credit where credit is due and thank The Globe and Mail for finally including Encore Cinemas feature and showtime listings in their movie section on a daily basis! For years, our listings appeared intermittently which lead to confusion to our guests and, frankly, has given an unfair advantage to our competition whose listings always appear. It had seemed that independent theatres were second class citizens in eyes of the G & M. We were so frustrated by this that we asked our customers to write and ask the Publisher to change their policy and make sure that Encore was part of the listings. We are thrilled to be able to thank our great customers who took the time to write and lobby and tell you that efforts paid off! Encore Cinemas is now a daily feature in the showtimes listing in The Globe and Mail and they have even redesigned the entire showtimes page to be easier to read and understand. Thank you again Globe and Mail and also to our fantastic loyal customers for supporting their local theatre! Jeff Knoll the CEO
Andrew will be in attendance at our screening to talk about his work and answer questions. DVDs will be on sale on the day of the screening and although there is no admission, we ask that you bring a food donation to Kerr Street Food Bank and consider making a donation to Andrew to help support his socially conscious filmmaking efforts! WHAT: Screening of "Chemerical Redefining Clean" WHEN: Thursday, December 10 7:00 PM WHERE: Encore Oakville Mews Cinemas 171 Speers Road Oakville, Ontario HOSTED BY: Encore Cinemas, Halton Green Screens & Councillor Jeff Knoll. Tickets are FREE. RSVP required. For more details and to RSVP, please visit: http://chemerical.bravenewtheaters.com/screening/show/13590 --~--~------~--~---------~-------~--~----~ About the film: Filmmaker Andrew Nisker puts a new spin on the story of how we treat our planet in his latest film Chemerical. He asks a family to purge their home of everyday chemicals and adopt a chemical-free lifestyle. Chemerical then takes the audience on an eye-opening journey through the lifecycle of everyday chemicals the family uses. Chemerical digs deep to explore the consequences of living in a chemical laden nation by raising the following questions: What are the chemicals doing to us and the environment? Do we need the chemicals we use on a daily basis? What would happen if an average family kicked the chemical habit for three months? Would their health improve? What effect will living a chemical free lifestyle have on the environment? Sparking awareness through an interesting and inspiring dialogue of an issue that affects the lives of everyone; Chemerical will seek to catalyze a change in behavior. Focusing on the lives and foibles of a family that subsists on a chemical dependent lifestyle, the film will relate and share their story as a basis for connecting the dots between our consumer choices and community environmental concerns.
