It hit the big screen over a year ago and made a big splash at the Canadian box office, with its $1.3 million opening weekend now in the record books as the highest grossing weekend for an English Canadian movie.

But now that it’s out on DVD and has had its TV premiere on Showcase, look for Clement Virgo’s Poor Boy’s Game (opening this week) or Jason Eisener’s feature-length Hobo With A Shotgun in this space next year.
