Business Support Group helps cinema owner with mission impossible
Jesse Tankard (above) has taken over the reins from Dennis Parkes, founder and long-time owner of The Picture Show Man twin cinemas in Merimbula. If you were to link a movie title to what Jesse and his team have been through over the past two years, it would be Mission Impossible.
The cinema lost its peak summer trade during the Black Summer bushfires and then were forced to close when the pandemic hit. On top of this, the global movie distribution system virtually shut down due to COVID-19, leaving Jesse with no blockbuster movies to screen.
