This is our local theater Super Cool spot. This is a movie about the fellow who owns the theater and his life story.He also has like 20 cats.There like a zoo

After a long winter (too long, if you ask me), Highlands Cinemas is back.

We reopen tomorrow — May 1st.

For over 45 years, this place has been a little different. Built in the woods, run on stubbornness, a love of movies, and the firm belief that watching a film should actually feel like something.

If you’ve been here before, you know.
If you haven’t… well, it’s about time you fixed that.

We’ve got the screens ready, the popcorn waiting, and yes—the cats are supervising as usual (poorly, but enthusiastically).

Come out, get your popcorn, check out the displays, and watch something the way it was meant to be seen: big screen and no nonsense.

One review of The Movie Man called this place “a Canadian Cinema Paradiso.”
You be the judge.
