Despite not being nominated for Best Director, Louise Archambault’s Gabrielle managed to pull off what we thought was the impossible (our Leora Heilbronn has pegged the drama as the film that should win, but favored Denis Villeneuve’s Enemy as the best bet) winning Best Motion Picture at the 2014 Canadian Screen Awards (a.k.a Canadian Oscars).

The voters also choose Gabrielle‘s Gabrielle Marion-Rivard as Best Actress in a Leading Role, while the heavily favored Enemy grabbed five awards, Best Direction for Villeneuve, Best Original Score for the excellent Danny Bensi/Saunder Jurriaans pairing , Best Editing,...

Directed and Written by: George A. Romero
Cast: Alan Van Sprang, Kenneth Welsh, Kathleen Munroe, Devon Bostick, Richard Fitzpatrick, Athena Karkanis, Stefano Dimatteo
I'll get the good part of George A. Romero's Survival of the Dead out of the way. It's a big one - do you like the Moon? Great. So do millions of Americans. If you like the Moon, Survival of the Dead has the most enormous image of the Moon you have ever seen.

This Moon has already slammed into the Atlantic and is cleaving away the last moments of life on the planet. That is how unrelentingly ginormous the image of the Moon is.
Otherwise, George A. Romero...
