Calgary's film community is concerned with the possible loss of another independent theatre as the Globe Theatre continues to be up for sale.

Calgary’s independent film community is growing increasingly concerned about the state of downtown-area cinemas following the imminent shutdown of one combined with the possible sale of another.

“I think you have to look at the bigger picture and it’s about the trend and they’re all connected – kind of like domino pieces,” he pointed out. “The apathy to letting one movie theatre go, it always leads to five more, to 10 more.”“You’re going to lose a lot of these historic places that have been around in the community for a while and have a special place.”
