Hollywood Suite Channels Relaunch Today

Starting today Hollywood Suite is the home of the movies that shaped the 70s, 80s, 90s and 2000s.  Subscribers can now easily reconnect with a favourite film – or discover a new one – on four HDTV channels, Hollywood Suite On Demand, and the Hollywood Suite GO app.

“In an era of overwhelming choice we wanted to give viewers an easier way to find the classic movies they love or the ones they have yet to discover,” said David Kines, President, Hollywood Suite. “And we’ll now have a deeper, wider selection for each of these decades.”

Hollywood Suite subscribers can still find the pre-1970 films they love with programming blocks dedicated to the essential classics from the Golden Age of Hollywood.

 Canadian film premieres include the Academy Award-nominated MONSIEUR LAZHAR, THE TROTSKY with Jay Baruchel, and the Alan Zweig documentary WHEN JEWS WERE FUNNY.

 With hundreds of movies a month, there’s always something great to watch on Hollywood Suite. Movies are always uncut and commercial-free, so viewers can experience them the way they were meant to be seen.

Which John are you?

Rocker John in GREASE or disco John in SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER?

Broadway John in STAYING ALIVE or country John in URBAN COWBOY?

Bad boy John in PULP FICTION or angelic John in MICHAEL?

Gangster John in BE COOL or supervillain John in SWORDFISH?

Ever since he strutted through the opening credits of Saturday Night Fever in 1977, John Travolta’s been Stayin’ Alive. Join Hollywood Suite November 13–15 as we look back on the career of John Travolta, a man as popular – and polarizing – today as he was in the days of disco.
