Spring is in the air (never mind the occasional snow flurry), so no excuse—go to the movies! What better venues than our wonderful independent cinemas?
From Academy Award-nominated movies to Valentine’s Day flicks, there are plenty of films to view at both the Bytowne and Mayfair this February.
From Canadian biographies to the tender story of two young cannibals, ByTowne and Mayfair are screening some Oscar-worthy films this January.
Looking for something to watch this holiday season? Check out Barbara Popel’s latest picks for the must-see films playing at the Mayfair and ByTowne during the first half of December.
What a selection to choose from! Both the ByTowne and the Mayfair are offering some dandy new films, including two genuinely unique flicks with lots of buzz, and a cornucopia of film classics.
Because I’ll be on vacation in July, I’m recommending a whole month’s worth of films at the ByTowne and the Mayfair. As usual, the ByTowne has published its entire schedule for the month, but I’m in the dark about most of Mayfair’s July offerings. Nevertheless, both offer a wide variety, including a slew of classics at the ByTowne and a bunch of new films.
From body horror to Inuit horror, and a lot of classic films in between, here are Barbara’s picks for the must-see films at the Mayfair and ByTowne.
It’s a busy June of movies, ranging from classic Cronenberg body-horror to romances from Ryûsuke Hamaguchi, a very early documentary film, and yes, everyone’s new favourite Batman film.
The Academy Awards on March 27 were… interesting. If you ignore the drama in LA’s Dolby Auditorium and focus on the drama in the films, you can catch many of the nominees and winners at Ottawa’s two independent cinemas, the ByTowne and the Mayfair. Plus they have a breakout Canadian film, several “prestige” films, and a must-see film from the vault. Here are my recommendations from now until April 16.
Our latest movie picks include the International Film Festival of Ottawa (IFFO) in addition to what’s playing at The ByTowne and Mayfair Theatre.
