What better way to celebrate Canada Day than with the release of a movie about life in the Canadian outback before the turn of the century and The Mountie looks like a low-key western (it's a far cry from Paul Gross. Gunless) capable of doing just that.
Co-written and directed by Wyeth Clarkson, he made a bit of a splash with 2006's Sk8 Life, the film stars Andrew W. Walker as Wade Grayling, a lone Mountie who has rolled into a town in the Yukon Territory to clean up the crime and corruption brewing behind closed doors (or in this case, inside tents). The movie also stars the talented Jessica Paré who some may recognize from her recent role on TV.s "Mad Men."
I'm not a huge fan of the title (I prefer the film's original title of Way of the West) but the trailer looks promising. It's adequately...

Fox Searchlight has signed In Search of a Midnight Kiss helmer Alex Holdridge to direct The F-Word, a screenplay which was listed on the 2008 Black List (an insider Hollywood listing of the best unproduced screenplays of the year). The biggest surprise about the F-Word is that it isn't the four letter word Fuck. It's "Friend". Based on the play ”Thoothpaste and Cigars” by T.J. Dawe and Michael Rinaldi, and written by Elan Mastai, whose previous credits include Alone in the Dark, Mvp: Most Vertical Primate and Sk8 Life. But don't let those credits scare you off, this screenplay has been making a lot of buzz around town.The impression that I get is that it's a romantic dramedy for people who don't usually like those type of movies. The story is described as a story about “Two best friends struggle with falling in love without ruining the bond between them.
