Fans of haikugirl: profuse apologies for the massive delay in updating my blog. SO SORRY!! Please scroll down to see a few new posts and photos - Happy New Year and ENJOY!
Wednesday night my dear friend Keith joined me for the sold out screening of For The Bible Tells Me So at the old-timey Bloor Cinema, part of my Doc Soup series from hot docs. It focuses on 5 families who handle the realization that one of their children is gay and includes interviews with former presidential candidate Richard Gephart and the first openly gay Anglican bishop Gene Robinson. Very powerful and interesting film that premiered at Sundance and is shortlisted for an Academy Award. Keith and I were quite emotional by the end and so was Producer/Director Daniel Karslake who shared wonderful stories about the making of the film, including his trip to Toronto to film Archbishop Desmond Tutu.
After Q&A, we headed to the charming Toba Restaurant for a delicious angus beef risotto and delightful Australian shiraz/viognier Innocent Bystander which is anything but!
Here's to more movies and wine in 2008!
