Two wonderful things happened in the year of our Lord, 1985. The first: I was born. (You're welcome!) And, likely to commemorate my arrival into the world, Anne of Green Gables was first broadcast. In short, the Kevin Sullivan-directed mini-series is majestic. Over the course of several hours (and then several more in the 1987 sequel), we exist in ...
First, a history lesson in the childhood habits of elder millennials. Back in the early '90s, cartoons were hard to come by for a kid with no cable. Sure, there was the usual Saturday morning block, and maybe your local networks would program a few ancient reruns on weekdays: Care Bears at some ungodly pre-breakfast hour; Flintstones at noon; a hal...
Take a young woman's coming-of-age tale and mix in a love story, place it in Montreal, set the language to French, throw in a choir and a sprinkle of Robert Charlebois ... and here you have a film guaranteed to bring me joy. It's called Gabrielleand it's directed by Louise Archambault. The film tells the story of Gabrielle, a young woman living wit...
Pulsating organic video game consoles that jack right into your spine. Underground networks of violent anti-game crusaders. A polluted landscape populated with grotesque, two-headed critters. Hardly the stuff of joy, you might object. But rewatching David Cronenberg's techno-thriller eXistenZ two decades after its release, it's hard to get over jus...
Creeks, buildings and schools are among the buildings named after John Ware, but what do we really know about the story of Black Canadian cowboys? Personally growing up, the answer was ... very little. Given some of its subject matter, this is not an obvious choice for a film that gives me joy, but after watching Cheryl Foggo's vibrant documentary ...
If Canadian films have a reputation for heaviness and heartbreak, then Xavier Dolan's Mommy is an extremely Canadian film. But at the centre of this tender-to-painful mother-son story is perhaps one of the most joyful scenes in the national cinema. Die (Ann Dorval) is a single widowed mother raising her 15-year-old son, Steve (Antoine Olivier Pilon...
1991 is one of those films that drives English-Canadian film producers mad with envy: a Quebecois romp that collected a pile of awards, had wide distribution and made a ton of dough. In fact, it topped the box office in Canada in 2018, earning well over $3 million. It also landed on Netflix, where you can now watch it en français with English subti...
Canadian filmmaker Emma Seligman made quite the mark with her directorial debut Shiva Baby, which debuted at the Toronto International Film Festival and was a hit when it was released in largely virtual theatres last month (landing Seligman an HBO deal with Adam McKay). A comedy suggestively set in an era that now feels pretty much like a period pi...
The elevator pitch for Gary Burns's 2000 indie comedy set in the interconnected condos, business towers and shopping malls of Calgary's commerce district might go something like, "Office Space ... but Canadian." Shot in jittery digital video, seasoned with lo-fi surrealist fantasies and scored by a vigorous, vertiginous electroclash soundtrack, way...
Finally, do yourself a favour and spend time with an unbelievably beautiful family in every sense of the word in Maya Annik Bedward's short doc Why We Fight. The story centres around a Brazilian couple, whose family processes the ups and downs of life through Capoeira, all while trying to keep their son Nauê — who has a rare medical condition — ali...

John Semley of The Globe and Mail commented that the 2015 list "seems a little heavy on recent movies," but was remarkable for its diversity. [12] The inclusion of more recent films led to the question of whether Canadian cinema was becoming more creative, or if critics were biased to more popular films. [5]
