Measuring Tape Girl Film Screening at the NFB

On October 2nd I’m hosting a film screening for Measuring Tape Girl at the National Film Board of Canada. Screening is limited to 60 people and the RSVP details are below.

The film is produced by an old friend Byron Martin whom I worked with a few years back on American Pie. (I’ve been in a few movies over the years, was on Degrassi TNG once too.)  This is the director Marco Veltri at Cannes earlier this year. Nice measuring tape jacket 😉

The film is about “society’s willingness to pour their hearts and bare their souls through a digital medium“. It’s an examination of self-image, alienation, and indecisiveness the average person is faced with today. The lead, Jessica Embro, is a video blogger.

 

For the record, I did not call myself a rockstar or “influential Canadian Blogger” but I am humbled by the kind works. Thank you to Vocab Communications for asking me to be their host. Looking forward to the screening & media surrounding the film.

Yay, films about blogging. I’M JULIA CHIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLD!!! (That was for Keri and if you have never seen the blogging movie ‘Julie & Julia’ you might not get it.)

Have an awesome day!

A Real Human Being

This was the title track in Ryan Gosling’s movie DRIVE that premiered at TIFF last week. I saw it last night. GREAT MOVIE. There was lots of silence, suspense, Ryan Gosling is a dreamboat. It’s crime thriller with violence that was shocking, I wasn’t expecting it.

He is tough but caring, sensitive and strong and in one scene he pushes her aside in the elevator, kisses her and (not telling the rest). I have a soft spot for a guy who can fix a car and drive it well and isn’t afraid to get his hands dirty. He also wears a toothpick so well.

I’m in love like The Notebook, all over again. I’d watch it again if you wanna go.

I bought the entire album on iTunes just now. Here’s a sample. Have an awesome day! 🙂

Gentleman Reg was there! He’s just as nice as he is handsome. Have you heard/seen/fallen in love with his Stevie Nicks “Wild Heart” cover yet? Here! Enjoy!

Thanks so much Gladstone! I’ll be back soon.
