Sue and I had a great night last night at the Nominees Reception for this year’s Canadian Screen Awards, held at the lovely Ritz Carlton in downtown Toronto. So we thought we’d compile some of our pics from last night and share them with you here in a post… The red carpet photo call for…

Eat Your Heart Out (2013) – Katie Boland

  I’ve been fortunate enough to chat with Katie Boland a number of times over the past couple of years. I’ve never met a more joyous and open soul who seems wise beyond her years. She’s gracious with everyone she meets, and made both Sue and I feel like friends straight from the off. So,…

Canadian Screen Awards 2014 – Gala 2

Katie Boland!

  It’s no secret that Sue and I adore Katie, she’s a wonderfully talented actress, gifted, funny, and just so darned likable. If you missed her over on the Smithee.TV site, have a look at her here as she talks about her work on The Master, Sex After Kids, working with her mom Gail Harvey on Long…

Sex After Kids – Cast & Crew Screening

I loved The Untitled Work of Paul Shepard, both Sue and I have made no secret of our love for that film. We both ranked it as one of our favorite films of 2011, but my friend Jeremy LaLonde, with his latest creation, Sex After Kids, has made a film that is leaps and bounds ahead…
