Toronto's Former Runnymede Theatre


On Bloor Street. I remember seeing Star Trek: The Voyage Home at this old cinema. October of 1986. While I waited in the ticket-holders' lineup the previous screening's crowd exited, and in the stream was an old friend (the friend I first saw Star Wars with). Chris offered: "It was wonderful. I think you'll really like it."

Now a wonderful Shoppers Drug Mart occupies the space. And I don't like it.

*Sigh* The bloom of our youthful memories; eaten away by the inexorable cancer of capitalism, often referred euphamistically as 'progress.'
