This film deserves notoriety. I had never heard of it; just stumbled across it on television. Too bad, because it is a great movie. The script is very clever, in terms of action and dialogue, and does a great job mixing hilariously silly moments with profound drama. Also, the acting is superb, I can't wait to see this auteur's next movie, or see these actors in other projects. Canada is not known for its film industry (even in Canada), and this is just the type of smart, exciting film that the industry should do a better job of promoting. Genuinely a film to be very proud of. However, I was disappointed in seeing a character pronounce the letter z "zee", instead of "zed". The directed showed signs saying Winnipeg, so he obviously wasn't too concerned with it pretending to be an American movie. Anyway, this film is great, and everybody should know about it.
