Letter to the Editor: Enjoying excellent movies at our local theatre

Thanks for the good article on the Kindersley Screen Arts in the November 23 issue.
Since sometimes members of the Kindersley & District Arts Council still get called for movie information, I just wanted to clarify that the Toronto International Film Festival originally contacted KDAC to show some of their films in Kindersley. We happily agreed. At that time, movies were on big screen reels so it presented some extra transportation problems and costs. However, we showed a lot of excellent movies at the theatre, then owned by Deanna Milner.

Later, Judy and her group took over. So, thanks to Shane Sawatsky, now owner of the theatre, sponsor Nikki Knight and the Kindersley Screen Arts, we continue to enjoy some excellent movies.
