40 Homewood Movie Night with Don
Resident Don Sangster hosts free weekly movie screenings from his personal collection on the large-screen television in our air-conditioned recreation room. Don has loved movies since he was a kid, and worked in movie theatres as an usher, doorman, assistant manager, and manager. He has been a director on the board of the Toronto Film Society for about 20 years. As a hobby, Don has collected hundreds of autographed photos of movie stars, and has met over 100 movie stars in person. He hosts movies for special occasions including Christmas and New Year, movie tributes honouring actors who have passed away, and Academy Award Nights with contests to guess the most award-winners and receive prizes. Don has been showing movies at 40 Homewood for 12 years.
Usually, comedies or musical theatre films are shown on Thursdays, while action, drama or suspense films are shown on Fridays. On movie nights, at 7:00 p.m. the TV sitcom Two and a Half Men is shown, then at 7:30 Don introduces the movie and its stars, and the movie begins. All residents are welcome. Bring your own popcorn!
