Chances are, if you're a Kevin Smith fan, you've already heard about this one via your Jay and Silent Bob secret decoder ring. But for everyone else, say what you will about his movies, Smith is still Storytelling Champion of the World (or at least of the DGA) when it comes to riffing with a live audience. That’s why the Bloor Cinema is brilliant for cashing in on his insanely well-received Evening With DVD series (wherein Smith answers fanboy questions and tells tales about life, love, Prince, and anal fissures) by organizing a three-day Kevin Smith Fest (wherein each and every movie is followed by a Q+A with the Jersey boy himself).
