    Blackbird | Review

    by Andrew Parker September 17, 2020
    by Andrew Parker September 17, 2020

    Blackbird is an effective, crowd pleasing tear-jerker with a well worn plot that succeeds thanks to great performances and a desire to steer clear of genre cliches whenever possible.

    TIFF ’09: Day 3 recap with Sam Neill and the Hef

    by W. Andrew Powell September 13, 2009
    by W. Andrew Powell September 13, 2009

    Yesterday was an entertaining day at the Toronto International Film Festival, and kind of a big deal for me. I mean, all of the festival is a big deal, but this was a *big* deal. First off I interviewed Sam Neill for Daybreakers, which was actually my second interview with him (I was lucky enough to have chatted with him last year for Skin).

    Earlier today the Toronto International Film Festival confirmed that Daybreakers, Ethan Hawke‘s latest film, had been chosen to screen during this year’s Midnight Madness.

    The film, which was directed by Peter and Michael Spierig, is set in 2019 after a plague has turned most of the Earth’s population into vampires.

    TIFF 08: Day four with… Kevin

    by W. Andrew Powell September 7, 2008
    by W. Andrew Powell September 7, 2008

    Today has been pretty quiet, compared to the last few days of the festival. I got up early and caught the screening of Zack and Miri Make a Porno (hilarious, for the record) before catching Fifty Dead Men Walking (not bad, but not as good as it should have been).
