One of the locations used was the old Seville Theater in a rundown section of St. Catherine Street near the old Montreal Forum.

After the filming was down everything was taken down and the theater still remains to this day (December 2006) closed, but is basically a shell as the owners have let it fall into disrepair. But the city has deemed that the front of the building historically important architecture and will not allow the building to be torn down unless they incorporate the front of the building into the new project.

Robert Totten

10.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: V for Vendetta (2006)?
a.
The only cars to feature in both "Fast and Furious" films was
Neal H. Moritz
s navy-colored Ferrari F355, and Doms RX-7. In the first film, the F355 was used in the Malibu race scene and then parked outside Verones house in
2 Fast 2 Furious
. The RX-7 was changed and used again in the second film as Orange Julius car in the first race scene.
b.
In early pre-production,
Jeanne Crain
campaigned for the female lead, but the role went to
Anne Baxter
. When Baxter had to forfeit due to approaching motherhood, Crains wishes were granted.
c.
There are repeated references to the letter "V" and the number five throughout the film. For example, Vs introductory monologue to Evey begins and ends with "V", has five sentences, and contains 49 words that begin with "V". Similar references are made through Vs background, choice of words and action. V is held in Larkhill cell number "V". A favorite Latin phrase of Vs is said to be from "Faust" but in fact was a motto of the notorious occultist Aleister Crowley: "Vi Veri Vniversum Vivus Vici" ("By the power of truth, I, a living man, have conquered the universe". The word "Vniversum" is mis-spelled in the movie and original comic as Veniversum; ). In a dance with Evey, the song V chooses is number five on his jukebox, though all the songs on his jukebox are numbered "5". When V confronts Creedy in his home, he plays Beethovens "Fifth" Symphony, whose opening notes have a rhythmic pattern that resembles the letter "V" in Morse code (...-). The Symphonys opening was used as a call-sign in the European broadcasts of the BBC during World War II in reference to Winston Churchills "V for Victory". The films title itself, is also a reference to "V for Victory". In the battle with Creedy and his men at Victoria station, V forms a "V" with his daggers just before he throws them. After the battle, when V is mortally wounded, he leaves a "V" signature in his own blood. The destruction of Parliament results in a display of fireworks which form the letter "V" (just like at the beginning with Old Bailey), which is also an inverted red-on-black "A" symbol for anarchy. Like the Old Bailey and Larkhill, Parliament was destroyed on the fifth of November. Also, Big Ben shows the start of the group of Vs at 11:05 pm, creating a giant V on the clock face. 11:05 is also the month and day format for the 5th of November. The fireworks at the end of the movie also form the letter V. It is also noted that in roman numerals, the number 5 is represented by a V symbol.
d.
Teri Hatcher
s first movie.
