Canadianized cinema
The Canada Film Fest injects some cultural references.

[iframe_youtube video=”CXFiCEadqYk”]
Ever watch a movie where a character who is supposed to be from Toronto pronounces the second T (as opposed to Torono, or Torona)? Does it burn you up inside that Hollywood can’t get that little detail right? If you answered yes, then this spot, by JWT for the Canada Film Fest should give you a chuckle (it’s a bit older but we felt worth a post). The video ends with the line “Great Films that are Canadian. Maybe a little too Canadian.” We disagree. Film-watching would be so much greater if we didn’t have to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius in our heads. (Warning: some of the language is NSFW.)
