Real Time

Browsing HBO the other night I come across the end of this movie.  Real Time is a comedic drama about a compulsive gambler given one hour to live by the man hired to kill him.

Featuring Canada’s own Jay Baruchel co staring alongside Randy Quaide; the duo find harmony in the both devasating and enlighting experience of what it feels like to know you’re about to die.  Don’t let the trailer fool you, there is more to this film than you think.

Polytechnique

Montreal director, Dennis Villeneuve has been in the heat of controversy in Quebec with his new film, Polyteqhnique (2009), documenting the events of December 6th 1989. The film follows two students witnessing the murder of 14 young women in a Montreal University shooting.
The film was released February 6th 2009 Globally. Villeneuve hopes the film will be a success in English-Canadian and American markets.
