  2. Cinéma Cartier

    This huge building really was a former movie theatre until it was sliced up with a store on the bottom and retail space up top. The 2nd floor houses an independent video shop with a little movie theatre in the back showing independent films. It's deliciously old-world, completely pitch black except for the screen, and set up with big comfy chairs. Subtitles in French only.
