Reel Ottawa a Memoir: With the Movie Theatres We Loved (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781988437651)

Danny is a movie-obsessed truant from a broken home who sneaks into movie theatres, steals memorabilia, and fantasizes about writing for the big screen. Both memoir and memento, Reel Ottawa takes us back to the 1970s and 1980s, when movie theatres were more common than car dealerships, newspapers listed daily showtimes, and almost every first date took place in front of a movie screen.

Written with self-deprecating wit and poetic self-reflection, Reel Ottawa is a love letter to some of the most iconic movies from the 1970s and 1980s and a touching, funny book about having big dreams when you're from a small town.
