This Summer’s Thursday Film Series explores the history of the Western genre. From classic American Westerns (My Darling Clementine) to Akira Kurosawa’s take on the lone antihero that inspired A Fistful of Dollars (Yojimbo). Once Upon a Time in the West represents the Italian western in this series, starring My Darling Clementine’s hero, Henry Fonda, as one of cinema’s greatest villains. No Country For Old Men is TFS’ representative of a neo-western. The Coens take the conventions of the West and subvert them to explore their nature.

Kamloops Film Society

The Kamloops Film Society is the umbrella organization that operates the Paramount Theatre and runs two main events: The Thursday Film Series and the annual March Kamloops Film Festival, which includes the Kamloops Independent Short Shorts Festival. The KFS has been operating for over 45 years and was officially incorporated under the BC Societies Act on August 17, 1994. In the spring of 2019, The Kelson Group purchased the Paramount Theatre and leased the venue to the KFS. The support of The Kelson Group and Ron Fawcett has made the venture possible as The KFS continues to make the theatre a cultural venue.
