Canadian film notebook: Undertone gets a surprising amount of publicity There is a huge Venn diagram space where a Canadian film gets publicity in Canada and that film being a horror film. Undertone hits some good marks: lo-fi, podcast angle, shot within the creator&#8…

Undertone is a new horror film that involves a podcast and is shot inside the director's home. Catching up on a list of 23 all-time Canadian comedy films. All in our latest #CanadianFilm notebook.

Canadian film review: Violent On the surface, you could argue that a Canadian film called Violent that is all in Norwegian would not be the best candidate for one of our Canadian film reviews. The good news is that Violent isn&…

Violent is not a violent film. A character study of the last encounter for a young woman of 5 key people in her life. Technically a #CanadianFilm but you will easily mistake this for a Norwegian film.

Canadian film notebook: Chasing the Best Motion Picture candidates from the Canadian Screen Awards There is an Oscars chase for some. The chase is to see all the Best Picture nominees before the Academy Awards air. The dynamic changed for the 2009 film year from 5 nominees to 10 selections. Occa…

Chasing the best picture nominees for the Canadian Screen Awards is almost impossible to do before the ceremony. #CanadianFilm rolls out more slowly, especially outside of Toronto. I've seen all but one and that is unusual.

Canadian film review: The Dirties If you look at Matt Johnson’s career as a filmmaker, Nirvanna the Band the Show were like the short films that a lot of filmmakers start out making. The Dirties is guerilla-style filmmaking i…

The Dirties is more than just guerrilla style filmmaking. The film is a parody of the planning of a school shooting, or is it? A must watch if you enjoyed Matt Johnson's making of Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie. #CanadianFilm

The Junos were live and celebrated Canadian music. Not in the late spring but late winter. An ideal time to celebrate. The #CanadianFilm and #CanadianTV celebrations are joined at the hip. Used to be in March but now are trapped in late May. A lot of awards given off-camera. Follow the Junos way.

Government cuts to the National Film Board put Canadian talent and culture at risk.

Les compressions budgétaires fédérales visant l'Office national du film du Canada mettent en péril la culture et les talents canadiens.

Films announce when they are coming. That is usually somewhere but not where you live. Hopefully your patience will be rewarded. BlackBerry now on Netflix and a bunch of nerdy thoughts on #CanadianFilm.

The cop type-cast is alive and well!

Was in Hamilton this weekend, shooting a new short with the awesome @paradigmstudios team, led by @timothymoran04! It was such a fun, dramatic shoot and I cannot wait to see the final product!

Canadian film review: Sweet Angel Baby Eliza (Michaela Kurimsky) is the ideal small town Newfoundland resident in Sweet Angel Baby. Eliza helps gather firewood for her neighbour. Eliza works to raise the money to buy the church building…

I like Sweet Angel Baby because of the variation of a fish out of water story. Different when the fish looks like it loves the water. Eliza works really hard to seem like she is in the water. A nice look at life in small town Newfoundland. #CanadianFilm

Canadian film review: Monkey Warfare “People need good dope to get through modern life.” — Susan. Humphrey Bogart & Ingrid Bergman. Katharine Hepburn & Spencer Tracy. Even Tom Hanks & Meg Ryan. Don McKell…

#MonkeyWarfare is that quiet, indie film you used to appreciate. The real life chemistry of Don McKellar and Tracy Wright. People living on the edge financially and philosophically. Few characters. A well-told story. #CanadianFilm

Canadian film review: Ninth Floor If you have seen the 2025 documentary True North from Michèle Stephenson, or want to find that documentary, we recommend a companion piece in researching this tale of Canadian history. Ninth Floor …

Ninth Floor is a history lesson about racism against Black students in Montreal in the 1960s. The good news is that you can watch this documentary for free via the National Film Board of Canada. An important story you likely don't know. #CanadianFilm

Canadian film review: Trigger Trigger is a fun and adventurous film that takes place over about 10 hours in Toronto. Kat (Molly Parker) and Vic (Tracy Wright) used to be in a band called Trigger. They reunite after not having s…

Trigger, on the surface, is about 10 hours in the lives of 2 women who used to be in a rock and roll band. This is a #CanadianFilm done hastily with people who really love each other. The backstory is beautiful and touching.
