Toronto Stories Party @ Union Station
The party to celebrate the premiere of Toronto Stories was tonight in the Great Hall at Union Station.
No matter what you do, someone else seems to come up with a similar approach at the same time. Still, I think Atom Egoyan is the one who needs to be jealous, because clearly the Toronto Stories poster is 2 inches taller. Wait, is that Scott Speedman with a beard ... ?
But there's envy for all. I think the poster for Blindness, a new flick written by Don McKellar, is a damn fine poster. Amber said that if I took rubber gloves and glued them to my head, I could live with that effect all day long.
I created an animated video loop in After Effects using the poster concept. It was projected on the wall of the station. Look up, sheeple! Look. Up ... aww, they can't even see it! I walked all the way to the Dufferin Mall to buy those DVDs.
The cast and directors had their picture taken with the Mayor. Everyone had a great time ... and waited until they got home to use the washroom!
