Don Owen’s 1967 NFB production is a real time capsule, featuring a performance by Leonard Cohen, Ste-Catherine Street at its peak and the shiny new metro system.

The film also has the dubious distinction of predicting the Rachel Dolezal scandal — one of its characters is a fake black woman.

Jessica Paré is one of three women circling poor Josh Hartnett in this 2004 remake of French thriller L’appartement, shot in Little Italy and NDG.
