Hot Docs 2008: Shadow Of Grumpy Burger #8

2008_03_20_steypa.jpg
It might be your last day to get downtown on the TTC today (check our strike status!) so better make the most of it! Our picks from today’s Hot Docs flicks:
12:00 p.m. – Shock Waves (ROM)
1:30 p.m. – Recycle (Cumberland)
5:00 p.m. – Stepya (Innis Town Hall) – pictured above.
6:30 p.m. – Tiger Spirit ( Bloor) – Min Sook Lee returns to Korea to examine the continuing influence 50 years of separation has had upon the divided country.
6:45 p.m. – Nursery University (Al Green)
7:00 p.m. – Junior (Cumberland) – A film about the world of junior hockey without any footage of hockey being played in it!
7:00 p.m. – The Rise And Fall Of Grumpy Burger (Royal) – Marshall Sfalcin wanted to make a film about his family’s claim that they invented fast food, but this isn’t that film: it’s a film about Sfalcin attempt.
7:15 p.m. – Shadow Of The Holy Book (Innis Town Hall)
9:15 p.m. – Corridor #8 (Isabel Bader) – The EU hoped to build a railroad linking Bulgaria, Macedonia and Albania, but it’s ten years from the project began and not much progress has been made. Boris Despodov investigates.
21:45 p.m. – Wesley Willis’s Joy Rides (Cumberland)

    CBC News Sunday features Murray Siple, who filmed Carts of Darkness. He talks about his film and the challenges he had of being confined to a wheelchair while making the film.
    Siple is a paraplegic–the result of a car accident more than 10 years ago. He had previously made a documentary film about snowboading. He enjoys those who live at the
    edge–and was attracted to the shopping cart
    racers.
    The segment should re-air tonight on CBC and Newsworld. It was on in the second hour this morning.

    Shadow of the Holy Book – bit of a mess which was a shame given the interesting topic.
    Wesley Willis’s Joy Rides was super.

    Nursery University was a hoot. Highly recommended.
