Mary Pickford stares into the camera.
Born on University Avenue, she became the girl with the golden curls, the first Hollywood star, and now Toronto is the star!
Goodwill Hunting, Pacific Rim, X-Men, Robocop, Total Recall, Prom Night, Suicide Squad, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Police Academy, and the list goes on and on and on.
It was back in the 1920s that Toronto emerged as a shy newcomer. But it stepped up to the camera, smiled, and went to work. The first real feature movie was "The Man From Toronto," and in the late 60s Toronto was "Going Down the Road," that the city was Hollywood bound.
And it wasn't just movies! Television movies, series, documentaries, music videos and video games were all shot here in Toronto. Award shows such as The Genie's, Juno's, the Canadian Screen Awards, Giller Prize and The Much Music Video Awards are all celebrated here! Let's find out where the movies came alive with this unique walking tour!
This walking tour is for all walking levels and fitness skills. Please dress for the season and bring water. And remember to bring your love of movie magic as well. Hope to see you there.
This tour begins at the famous TORONTO sign at Nathan Phillips Square. We end back at the start location at the Toronto sign!
The tour is tip based with membership with a minimum price of $10.00.
