That sounds like a good movie. Suprisingly enough, I haven't seen it even though I lived up north...But I do remember seeing the making of it on the APTN. Now I have to see it!

Do, Jo. I found it really insightful - I kept losing track of the plot, though; the landscape was so compelling I neglected to read the subtitles and just stared at it. Highly recommended.

Men With Brooms is excellent. I've mentioned The Corporation before. There's that werewolf movie about the two sisters...sorry but I can't remember the name. Blackrobe is good too. Not bad...4 movies from 4 different genres just off the top of my head.

Just watched Last NIght... well, last night. :cool:

It is probably the best of the end-of-the-world genre I've ever seen. It focuses on a handful of people in Toronto on the last night of earth. Absolutely brilliant.

Would "The Shipping News" be considered Canadian? Just by filming it in Newfoundland should count for something,eh? Anyway,it's a good film.

Most of the movies that Kevin Spacey appears in are good 'uns[The Usual Suspects!]Someone mentioned Cronenburgs'"Crash"..trash is more like it;couldn't watch more than a few minutes of it,but the book by Ballard is fantastic!
