😀 Happy #LetterboxdFriday! Three short Oscar contenders among my #LastFourWatched. They were OK.
🌴 Also watched the 3.15-hour APOCALYPSE NOW Redux, which was great. I now want to watch the BTS documentary HEARTS OF DARKNESS, but it's no longer available on Amazon Prime in Canada. Bummer! ☹️

😊 Fun challenge in this article: Can you name 50 Canadian movies from 2025?
🤔 Without checking my Letterboxd tally, I could name 15 Canadian feature length films and docs of 2025 by heart, including one I still have to watch.
Onwards! 😉
I hope people outside of Canada can access this wonderful short film from The National Film Board about knitters in Whitehorse. It's so soothing and lovely.

My Knitting Circle, now streaming from the National Film Board of Canada, is a cozy documentary that will keep you warm amid the winter blahs. povmagazine.com/now-streamin...

Siksikakowan: The Blackfoot Man at Big Sky is a wonderful film about how boys learn to become men. It speaks volumes to all of humanity

🔥 Congrats to team IN THE ROOM on their U.S. premiere at SBIFF a few days ago.
Here are our participants tired but happy after a lengthy red-carpet walk at Santa Barbara's beautiful Arlington Theatre! ✨
Thanks, Steve, for the review!
Thank you for your honesty, Steve!
This is indeed a personal story, which scored the Reel Asian-DOC Institute Best Documentary Award in 2025. Congrats to Min Sook Lee on her U.S. premiere last week at SBIFF. ❤️🩹

Donald McWilliams didn’t start as an animator, yet became one of Canadian animation’s most vital custodians of memory. From Norman McLaren to the NFB archives, his work treats history as something alive, fragile, and worth fighting for.

I had to stop watching after 45 min of every single sentence including the F** word and worse. I just can't handle that language anymore. Who talks like this, in a work environment? Maybe I missed a brilliant plot twist!
