Opened with(on the English language screen) “The Railway Children” and “One more train to rob”, and on the french language screen with “Les Annees fantastoques(The impossible years)” and De l'or pour les braves(Kelly’s heroes)“.
3 écrans le 4 août 1972. Impossible d'obtenir l'annonce de la grande ouverture française depuis que La Presse était en grève.
3 screens on August 4th, 1972. Could not get the French grand opening ad since La Presse was on strike.
Opening day ad and article uploaded to photos page.
English movies returned in 2014. One screen shows English movies on Thursday nights. I went this summer, 2015. I saw “Fantastic Four” and “Agent 47” one week, and the following week, “No Escape” and “Selfless”. It was fun to be back at a drive-in, and all the screens are digital projection. I sort of missed the look of 35 mm film, but digital projection is brighter. I hope they continue to show English movies on Thursdays, or have one screen show English films for the entire summer.
Official website
Lost Memory, Happy Holidays, The grand opening from the Montreal Gazette from October 29th, 1971 is at View link
Also look at my posts for Place Du Canada and Bonaventure of Montreal.
Some mistakes, Lost Memory, According to La Presse (newspaper) the 3rd screen added in 1972 and two more added in 1979. Also this is the largest drive-in outside of the USA. I have the grand opening ad on page 53 of my Montréal website at http://movie-theatre.org/canada/qc/montreal/ . This is one of the original five theatres in Montréal to show Star Wars. Others are CP Chateauguay, Cote Des Neiges (2 screens), Place Bonaventure, Place Victoria
An excellent French language website about drive-ins can be found at http://www.freewebs.com/cineparcs/
