Hey Everyone,

I was just looking around for information on Landmark Cinemas of Canada, but I can't seem to find anything on them. I'm looking for information such as:
-What year were they founded?
-Who founded them?
-Were they a spin off of the states' Landmark Theatres?
-What's there involvement with (and who is) Rokemay theatres?

Just information such as this.

Landmark was founded in late 60's early 70's by Hector Ross, Frank Kettner and Phillip and Charles May. The May's also own some theaters in Saskatchewan (Weyburn and Swift??) I believe all of the old shareholders or the remaining were bought out.

I believe it was an amalgimation of King Cinema, Rokemay and Towne Cinema Theaters.
