“The Long Way Back “: Some Reflections on an Indie Film

Breaking Glass Pictures (BGP) in Philadelphia has an interesting portfolio of films they have sent my way over the past few years.

Marketing doesContinue reading “Tragically Hip: Great Band But the Wine That Bears its Name?: Canadian Rock n Roll Wine!”

“I’m Wanita”: Wanita’s Big Chance!: Toronto Hot Docs

This is my last Hot Docs Film to be reviewed and after seeing so many serious and less than cheerful documentaries I came across one from Down Under “I’m Wanita” that is a bit more relaxing than being enshrined in doom.

“Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 56 “Not Everyone Likes Squid: Dora Birdbrain Speaks Her Mind”

Predictably Squid had not been invited to speak with any of the “well known and respectable charities” for fear he would attack their wealthy patrons or corporations who continually harassed employees into contributing to the charity of the day favoured by their senior management teams. His views on American imperialism would not be appreciated dueContinue reading ““Mutantism on the March” :Chapter 56 “Not Everyone Likes Squid: Dora Birdbrain Speaks Her Mind””

Markdale Dies and Is Reborn Thanks to Obscenely High Toronto Real Estate Prices

Two hours from Toronto lies the town of Markdale. Jesse McCracken takes us there to film his father and grandfather and Markdale.

A Couple of Portuguese Reds: Never Ending Quality?

The first one is a Terra Lenta Premium 2018 from the Alentejano region in Portugal. It is a blend of Trincanderia, Aragonez and one of my favourite blenders Alicante Bouschet. On the nose concentrated black cherry with some blackberry and blueberry. There is a bit of red plum and the tiniest bit of cinnamon.
