    Thanks so much for having this wonderful film, and thanks to my neighbour Owen for telling me about rarefilmm.com. In my opinion, this is Robbie Coltrane’s best role, and there are so many other things about this — for instance, this is *such* a Canadian film that it seems like a foreign film. I have been recommending it to my opera friends and colleagues since I first saw it (decades ago?) but have not been able to find it anywhere. I even spoke to the production company to ask them why they’d never released it for sale — they said they didn’t think there would be a market and anyway it was too much trouble I am going to have little cards printed up so I can tell them they can find it here.

    If you care about any of : hockey, beer, opera, awkward romance, taxis, restaurants, Robby Coltrane, Canada, or hot chocolate, you will like this film, If you care about two or more, it is an absolute must-see.
