Earlier this week, all across Canada, film fans lined up at their local Canadian Tire, to vote their favorite movie that the country produced. Okay, that didn't really happen, but a panel of industry types all cast their votes for Canada's Top Ten, which as you might guess, celebrates the finest in nation's cinematic output in a given a year. And this year, quite a few high profile titles made the cut (with titles ranked alphabetically, not numerically).

Among those earning honors were David Cronenberg's heady "Cosmopolis," Xavier Dolan's dazzling "Laurence Anyways," the hockey comedy "Goon" and Sarah Polley's absolutely wonderful documentary "Stories We Tell" ("Take This Waltz" was on last year's list, in case you were wondering). Meanwhile, festival and arthouse faves like Deepa Mehta's "Midnight's Children" and Kim Nguyen's "Rebelle" also won favor with Canadian cinema insider types.
But let you think this is some kind of insider self-congratulatory thing, select movies from the lineup will tour the country stopping at Vancouver’s Pacific Cinematheque, Edmonton’s Metro Cinema, Montreal’s PHI Centre and Toronto's TIFF Bell Lightbox. See the list below -- have you seen these movies yet?
Canada’s Top Ten feature film selections for 2012, ordered alphabetically.

• Cosmopolis, David Cronenberg (Entertainment One Films)

• The End of Time, Peter Mettler (Mongrel Media, National Film Board) 

• Goon, Michael Dowse (Alliance Films)

• Laurence Anyways, Xavier Dolan (Alliance Films) 

• Midnight's Children, Deepa Mehta (Mongrel Media) 

• My Awkward Sexual Adventure, Sean Garrity (Phase 4 Films) 

• Rebelle, Kim Nguyen (Mongrel Media)  

• Still, Michael McGowan (Mongrel Media) 

• Stories We Tell, Sarah Polley (Mongrel Media, NFB) 

• The World Before Her, Nisha Pahuja  

Cosmopolis and Rob of course, seems to never stop to have recognition... and that makes me sooo happy...!!

"Cosmopolis"... One of TIFF’s Top 10 Canadian Films of 2012....

...

from Huffington Post

For the twelfth year running, the Toronto International Film Festival has named the top 10 Canadian films of the year. 

The list has box office winners and festival circuit darlings alike, as chosen by a panel of seven filmmakers and industry professionals. The final list was announced Tuesday night at a Toronto gala, along with the year’s top 10 shorts.

Cosmopolis“In the cocoon of his limousine, a gazillionaire creeps across the city, searching for amusement and a haircut. The slow burn of David Cronenberg’s Cosmopolis is initially unsettling (when is something going to happen?) but becomes delirious as the car crawls along

"Cosmopolis"... Vulture – Critics’ Roundtable: What was the Cultural Event of 2012..?

... 

What culture outside of your own genre did you enjoy this year?
Matt Zoller Seitz: David Cronenberg’s Cosmopolis seems pretty much perfect to me. I saw it a couple of months ago, and not a day has gone by that I haven’t thought about it.

Richard Gere about Robert Pattinson...

“He was a Perfectly Nice Guy”...

from E!

As everyone knows by now, Robert Pattinson met Richard Gere on Friday when he attended a luncheon in honor of the silver-haired actor’s awards buzzy film, Arbitrage, at Osteria Mozza in Los Angeles.
But what you may not know is that Gere didn’t exactly realize how major the Twilight star was.
“He was a perfectly nice guy, but I had no idea,” Gere told me at the Governors Awards.“But I was getting calls from my wife going, ‘What are you doing with him? He’s so cute, but what are you doing with him?’”
So Gere’s better half, model-actress Carey Lowell, is a Twi-hard?!
“My wife is aware of these things,” Gere laughed. “I don’t know that she’s a fan.”

alors... vite fait, bien fait...

Richard Gere a dit qu'il (Rob bien sur)) était un gars très correct, mais qu'il n'en avait aucune idée... (LOL) Mais qu'il recevait des appels de sa femme lui demandant ce qu'il faisait avec lui... et lui disant aussi qu'il (toujours Rob) était si mignon....

Roadside threw a luncheon today for Arbitrage star and possible Best Actor nominee Richard Gere at Pizzeria Mozza (641 N. Highland Avenue). Gere delivers one of his career-best performances in Nicolas Jarecki's film, but yes, the Best Actor field is very crowded this year.
