Canuck Flick Action
REEL Canada is a new program promoting Canadian film in the classrooms of the nation's high schools. It was one of my summer projects (see logo, above). The first school screened their picks today. There's a full list of selected films -- any thoughts? Which ones are missing?
From the comments:
 PATRICK:
Waydowntown by Gary Burns (2000).
Why is Don McKellar in EVERYTHING?
 DARRYL:
Un Zoo La Nuit (Night Zoo) is, in my opinion, one of the all-time greats from this country
Pouvoir intime (Blind Trust) should also be considered.
Most of that list is filled with obvious, pretentious stuff, that is more likely to repel then attract. That's why I like to recommend some good character-driven films and thrillers (like the French films above).
Gotta list Porky's! One of the all-time greats.
If you insist on being pompous, how about Jesus of Montreal and/or Decline of the American Empire? At least they have some humour, sex and nudity.
By the way, Dead Zone is not Canadian. Not technically anyway. Neither is Videodrome, The Fly, Naked Lunch and so on. Rabid and Shivers are.
 ICE QUEEN:
The Company of Strangers
Beautiful and thoughtful.
