No More Joy: The Rise and Fall of New Orleans Movie Theatres

No More Joy: The Rise and Fall of New Orleans Movie Theatres (2005) is a documentary film directed by David D'Entremont.

From the first movie nickelodeon on Canal Street in New Orleans at the turn of the century to the mega-plex theatres in the suburbs of the city, this film traces their history. With interviews from the people that were working in silent movie theatres to the visionaries that knew that "if you built them they will come", this is fascinating look at a history in a city that is a joy in everyone's memory.
