Sometimes, when I am idly daydreaming, I get flashes about what becomes of letters displaced within the postal service. It appears strange to lose mail, especially in my young spirited mind, the system of post worked smoothly and there were no chances of missing letters or parcels. It seems that my co-writer and co-director, Joe
There are a pair of films that are poles apart and are being made in Little Death. One is larger than life, rough around the edges and not all that brilliant but kind of stupidly entertaining. The other one is a depressing one, almost of a softer kind, and has a completely different message. To
Clear Cut: As a group of loggers are working in the woods, they come across what seems to be a meth cook site. Little did they know that they would have to deal with drug cartels on their backs fighting for their survival. A clear cut is the title of the film, and it creates

The absurdity of working with children and animals is an idea embedded in the film industry. For different reasons, these days, animals in particular have been replaced by CGI. Still, filmmaker Peter Cattaneo ignores these rules for his entry to TIFF24 with The Penguin Lessons. Cattaneo’s work immerses us into the thick of the chaos…political
As bad as it gets, Mutants of Nature Cove has no plot, no narrative and is not even good on the level of a college video. The only redeeming thing about the flick is the sheer extent of naked skin you will behold. If there was a budget for this movie, it clearly was not
An exploration in documentary style about the American indie group Pavements that intertwines narratives with the documented footage of the band as well as a selection of their songs on the soundtrack. Pavements is a band that constantly resonates for a particular demographic of both ’90s and the 2000s rock audience while the rest of
