Interesting. . .

I went to the movies this evening and, on the way out, I saw a poster for the movie "Passchendaele". I was immediately intrigued because you really don't see that many movies about World War One.

I came home, did a quick google, and found out that it's a Canadian film by Paul Gross. While I have reservations about war movies that try to tie in a romance, I want to see this film. How often do we get a chance to see a Canadian story told on the big screen?

Sounds like something I'd like to see, Remi. Will it be shown in "mainstream" cinemas, or will I have to venture downtown to see it?

It looks like they're planning for a pretty wide release. Seems to be a pretty high profile release (for a Canuck flick).

Paul Gross? Was the title "Men With Guns" already taken?

Despite my skeptism, I'll end up watching it.
