Movie Review:

Last night my daughtr and my niece Audrey invited our family to their new apartment for supper, and cooked a lovely feast. They have painted it up, with Bernie's help, and we have all contributed to furnishing and dishes, and they now have a truly lovely spot. Joanne, Bern's sister, was also able to join us, and after supper we visited for a while and then all went to StarCité to see "Bon Cop Bad Cop", which bills itself as Canada's first bilingual movie. There were subtitles in English for the French, but none in French for the English, however, so Audrey had to struggle to get a few things from context. However, an English person would be able to get most of the movie, which is about two cops (one from Ontario, one from Québec) solving a multiple murder case together. It was very funny, and more violent than I had thought, but the theatre was packed and there was lots and lots of laughter. A good movie made more interesting by its bilingual plot and some fine acting, anchored by Colm Feore and Patrick Huard, (the former probably Canada's foremost actor and the latter Québec's best known). Huard had also co-written and the idea was his. A very talented man. I doubt if the film will get much play beyond Québec, which is unfortunate.

And tonight I am off to Barrhaven for time with the Dorans. Andrea and some of her family are there and will barbecue and swim, and we're invited along. I can hardly wait to see them.

Have a great week.
