Okay, I was wondering when I read that the first time, but I forgot. Where did you get the last name? Was it ever mentioned? I can't remember. And IMDB lists only first names. Not that that means anything. Still. Curious!
Re: actors, Dov Tiefenbach was also in Snow Cake. Not that I remember seeing him in this. But I am an compulsive IMDB checker. I do seem to remember him in something else as well, but I can't remember what. And IMDB doesn't help. Hmpf.
I like the comment you chose!
After encouraging Ed to buy Garnet a birthday present on his own, Ed gives Garnet a BB gun. Flower is horrified. Ed is delighted. It’s a scene that shows Ed’s cluelessness but also his desire to please.
Wow, okay. I never... I think I never actually analyzed this movie, even in my head. But, yeah. He is delighted, isn't he? He wants to give him the best of all the presents. I remember now. He's toatlly disappointed when Garnet doesn't want to open his presents.
Without giving too much away, Ed in the hospital with Flower as he tries to be there for her but - because of the experience with his wife - can’t. The terror in Callum's eyes is palpable.
YES. It's a wonderful scene.
Still can't fill out the polls. :( (I'd say you should think about re-posting them, just the polls, but who knows if it'll actually help? Grr. Think about it though. If they don't work here in the next few hours and you want actually someone to fill them out, do the thing Neu111 did a while ago when she had the same problem: here and here.)
Callum's Adventures In Ashcroft will never be not awesome. ♥
Man, I haven't seen the City TV interview in a while. It's good, it's really, really good. As are the articles you chose to quote.
So, yes. YES. Great post. \c/
(And you know? I think F&G is one of the few actually good projects Callum did. Like, the Canadian movies? There is F&G, and HCL, and Last Night. And I think that's it. These are the really good Canadian films he made. Okay, where he had an actual character to play. WW is okay, and Whole New Thing is really good, but he just has a small role. I love Falling Angels but it's... uneven. Oh, and I thought Curtis's Charm was pretty awesome. But the Carl Bessai stuff. Yeah. No. Not for me. Secret: I actually think Normal is a pretty bad movie, even though Callum was great in it. /c\ )
Where did you get the last name? Was it ever mentioned?
Yes - but I can't remember where. I know if was there, because I thought they'd said "tuttle" or something and I had to search on a few variations to find the right name. IMDB doesn't mention it but a couple of the reviews do.
But, yeah. He is delighted, isn't he? He wants to give him the best of all the presents.
Callum is very understated throughout the film - but you can really *feel* him trying here. It's so heart breaking. He's right to be proud - he's done such a great job here. And maybe it's the directing too - it's like Keith Behrman has gotten everyone to hold back a little and it really works.

Doing a little research, I came up with WW, Hard Core Logo, Last Night and Flower and Garnet as the Callum films I should see (and Twitch City which - thanks to this LJ community - I also bought. It's awesome!). So I was really keen to do the review. *g*

Definitely. *agrees a lot*
And yeah, Twitch City is totally awesome. And I like Curtis's Charm too. A lot. *tempts*
