Movie theatres usually discourage talking but our latest series is designed to encourage it — before and after (not during) the show. Created for cinema-loving Seniors, Talking Pictures offers audience-friendly festival films, refreshments, and an open invitation to chat about our shared experience of the movie.

Join us on the last Tuesday of the month, at 11:00 am, at the most comfortable theatre in the city, the VIFF Centre.

Tickets are just $10. Bring a buddy and get two for $16!
