If you are Canadian, nominate Sarah Polley for the
Greatest Canadian!  The CBC is holding a contest to
see who is the greatest Canadian, and obviously, my
first response was Sarah Polley!

http://www.CBC.ca/greatest/nominate/index.html

Only Canadians can participate, so lets get a move on!


Great club!

Greg

According to Paul McCartney, ''God only knows'' is the most beautiful
song ever written, and I almost agree with him :-), and the lyrics
fit very well in the movie.

I am glad you found the song you were looking for.

Actually, I read through the rules thoroughly, and no, you DON'T have
to be Canadian to nominate someone. Anyone can participate.

Personally, as much as I think Sarah rocks, I don't think she's
deserving of the title "Greatest Canadian".

Nominations close soon, though. Sooo...go through the list the site
provides and select someone. Or Sarah. :)

Patrick Roy is the greatest goaltender in NHL hockey history. (The National
Hockey
League). Roy, who played from 1985-2003 with the Montreal Canadiens and the
Colorado
Avalanche, has more wins than any other goalie in hockey history. He won four
Stanley
Cups and is the only player in NHL history to win the Conn Smythe Trophy
(playoff MVP)
three times.
Roy, now retired, is currently a part owner of the Quebec Remparts junior hockey
team.

I am currently in mourning as my Montreal Canadiens were swept from the NHL
playoffs in
four straight against the Tampa Bay Lightning...the TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING!!! It's
difficult,
but I will go on (we did come back to beat Boston this year)
And as for Sarah's Leafs, best of luck against Philadelphia.

Ah, hockey, the greatest game ever.

Subject: Excerpt from Canadian Press/Globe and Mail article on the Genies...
maestroshelly98
 
(This is on Sarah and her acceptance speech...)

Sarah Polley broke what could have been a clean sweep for [Denys]
Arcand's film (The Barbarian Invasions) in the major categories by
winning best actress for her role in My Life Without Me, the story of
a young Vancouver wife and mother who learns she has only months to live.

Polley made the most politically controversial remark of the evening,
a clear rebuke of Telefilm Canada's new policy of funding films with
commercial, not auteur appeal.

"I don't think the answer to making our films more accessible is to
make dumber, more commercial movies. I think it's to make sure people
can see them and to ensure that a quota of our screens are dedicated
to showing our films so that Canadians can have access to their own
stories."

Polley received heavy applause and cheers.

(From the same article linked in my last message...)

Backstage, Polley was asked if she was disappointed that more people
didn't see her film.

"It disappoints me because the Dawn of the Dead is a movie I loved
doing. I really would have rather this movie (My Life Without Me) made
$27-million and I think it's a movie that affects people's lives and
can affect the way they think."

She expressed gratitude that Odeon Films supported her film.

"But there's only so much you can do when it's playing at one theatre
and American blockbusters are playing in every theatre. I love movies
and I go to see films I want to support, but ultimately I'm going to
go to the theatre near me and so is everybody else. And we need to
make sure these films are able to have an audience by being accessible
to the public."

Sarah would agree, except with the fact he's not a Leafs fan....

If Genie met Stanley...
What if we liked our movies as much as hockey?
`Canadian Oscars' could use some playoff fever
by PETER HOWELL, TO Star

I don't care if the Leafs win the Stanley Cup, or even if they reach
the finals.

It feels treasonous to admit this, but also cathartic: I don't follow
hockey, and I have no personal stake in the outcome of various
playoffs now consuming so many of my fellow Hogtown inhabitants.

If the Leafs manage to hold off the Philadelphia Flyers and advance
to the next playoff round, I won't feel the slightest urge to drive
up and down Yonge St., waving a blue-and-white flag and
shouting, "Go, Leafs, Go!"

If the Leafs lose, I won't get drunk and sing rude songs about
Americans, set U.S. flags on fire or put a picture of the Flyers'
coach on my dartboard.

Not that I begrudge any of my fellow Torontonians from indulging in
such mob pursuits, being the tolerant and generous Canuck that I am.

If people want to paint their faces blue, trade their first-born for
nosebleed seats and consume vast quantities of beer, chicken wings
and Timbits to further their hockey addiction, more power to 'em, I
say.

But I can't help thinking that my charity toward hockey fanaticism
isn't being returned in kind. My own passionate interest in another
Canuck pursuit, Canadian movies, isn't accorded the same kind of
popular fervour and drop-everything attention that hockey commands.

Tomorrow is Genie Awards night, the evening when Canada's film
community honours the best in maple syrup cinema. If you neglected to
circle the date on your calendar, you're far from alone, even if
Mayor David Miller has declared May 1 to be Genie Awards Day in
Toronto.

The Genies exist to recognize a national art form that few Canadians
bother to experience.

The list of nominees for best film are greeted by many with a bored
chorus of "Eh?" from sea to shining sea, even if one of the five
nominees, Denys Arcand's The Barbarian Invasions, recently
distinguished itself by winning Canada's first Oscar for best foreign-
language film.

Ask anyone on the street today about what big national event is
happening this weekend, and chances they'll tell you the Leafs are
playing the Flyers, in another of those do-or-die matches that only
seem to come around every second game or so. They may even be able to
name you some of the star players.

I'll bet that few, if any, will mention the Genies, despite the fact
that CHUM Television has been enthusiastically touting its new
broadcast role, a pleasant change from the usual CBC shrugs.

And almost no one — unless you happen to catch a strolling movie
critic — will know the five nominees for Best Motion Picture. (For
the record, the other four are Robert Lepage's The Far Side Of The
Moon, Jean-François Pouliot's Seducing Doctor Lewis, Charles Martin
Smith's The Snow Walker and Richard Kwietniowski's Owning Mahowny.
All good movies, incidentally.)

Ignorance of Canadian films is in part due to how difficult they are
to see. The Far Side Of The Moon doesn't open in Toronto until next
Friday, a week after the Genies and long after its Quebec run. And
the two best Canadian films in a long while, Guy Maddin's The Saddest
Music In The World and Ron Mann's Go Further, both open today in a
handful of downtown theatres.

We are constantly reminded of the gloomy statistic that less than 3
per cent of Canadian filmgoers bother to see films made by their
countrymen. This fact is often used to advance the wonky thesis that
Canadian films aren't successful, ergo, Canadian films suck.

But such flawed logic is never applied to hockey, and in particular
the Maple Leafs.

The Leafs haven't won a Stanley Cup since 1967 (not that I care; see
above admission of apathy). Yet this embarrassing fact hasn't stopped
Torontonians from loyally attending Leaf games, and hoping year after
year that the Buds will once again bring hockey glory to the city.
Nor have similar failures in other Canadian cities stopped other
toque wearers from remaining faithful to their national sport.

What if, I wonder, such fanatical devotion were to be extended to
Canadian films and to the Genie Awards?

Call it my Genies Dream.

What if people knew the names of Canadian directors and actors as
well as they do hockey coaches and players? Shouldn't Ron Mann be at
least as famous as Tie Domi?

What if there were a radio station called The Movie Buff devoted
entirely to movie talk, in which people could call in and discuss
this year's strong slate of Quebec films, or bemoan the lack of a
Best Motion Picture nod for The Saddest Music In The World?

What if CFRB's Bill Carroll, John Moore, Jim Richards and other
forthright announcers were to fulminate in righteous indignation
about the paltry number of screens allotted to Canadian films, and
demand that the McGuinty and Martin governments do something about it?

What if some backbench MP were to stand up in the House of Commons
and seriously address the issue of whether there are enough maple
crullers available at Tim Horton's across the land, so that Canadian
movie lovers will have something to dunk in their lattes during their
fervent post-screening discussions?

What if the Prime Minister were to convene a Royal Commission to
probe into the scandalous lack of a star system in Canada, and to
make correcting the situation one of his many governing priorities?
Part of the investigation would include a study into why a star of
Sarah Polley's calibre feels forced to make zombie movies to further
her career. (Although Dawn Of The Dead was pretty cool.)

What if people were to wear T-shirts bearing portraits of Rémy
Girard, Marie-Josée Croze, Molly Parker or any of the other Genie-
nominated actors or actresses?

What if dog lovers were to dress their pooches up in furry versions
of the Genie statue, to keep them warm — and also looking cool — on
long night walks?

What if scalpers were to stand outside tonight's Leafs game, offering
to trade two hockey tickets for every single ticket to tomorrow's
Genies?

What if bootleggers were to stand on street corners, hawking illegal
DVD copies of The Far Side Of The Moon so people don't have to wait
that long week until it finally opens?

What if Leafs announcer Joe Bowen were to shout, "Holy Mackinaw!"
every time someone wins a Genie tomorrow night?

What if Genies show host Scott Thompson were to show up with the rest
of his Kids In The Hall gang for a surprise reunion, and then make
jokes about all the people who are missing it because they're too
busy watching some damned hockey game?

What if fans attending whatever damned hockey game is on were to
smuggle in portable TVs and radios, so they can keep up with the
Genies while watching the puck out of the corner of their eyes?

What if Don Cherry were to get together with my colleague Geoff
Pevere and me, for a TV spot called Cineaste's Corner, in which we
could hotly debate the merits and distinctions of Atom Egoyan and
David Cronenberg? On a seven-second delay, of course, in case we were
tempted to say anything politically incorrect.

What if all these wonderful things were to happen?

Why, Canada would be a better place, of course.

The Genies Awards broadcast is 8 p.m. tomorrow on Citytv, Bravo! and
Star!

All true patriots and film lovers will be watching, although I hear
there might be a hockey game on somewhere ...

Sarah Polley used her acceptance speech to criticize more commercial
and "dumber" movies. She received warm applause when she advocated a
quota system, similar to Canadian-content rules that have worked well
for pop music, where a percentage of screens would be dedicated to
Canadian films. Backstage, she said she knew the idea of a quota was
deemed unrealistic, but it's "unrealistic to think we're going to
have a thriving Canadian film industry without it."

It's become a spring tradition for Leafs fans. Once again, the Toronto Maple
Leafs, despite new additions Ron Francis and Brian Leetch, failed to beat the
Philadelphia Flyers in the Stanley Cup playoffs, losing the series 4 games to
2, the final game a 3-2 overtime loss. The loss was especially heartwrenching
for Leaf fans as the Buds came back from a 2-0 deficit to put the game to
overtime.
The 37 year drought continues for Lord Stanley's mug in Toronto.
I think we should all see I Shout Love, so you can see the frustration of Leaf
fans firsthand through her characters in the short film.
I guess Toronto has no "Luck", unlike our Sarah.
Don't worry, Sarah, there's always next year, just like for my Habs.

And Toronto-based [Sarah] Polley's eventual win for best actress for
My Life without Me, a drama copro with Spain, was all that averted a
French sweep of the major categories. Polley took the occasion to take
a shot at Telefilm Canada's mandate for a more commercial Canadian
cinema, and she called for regulating the number of Canadian films on
Canadian screens.

"I would rather [My Life] had made $27 million," she said, referring
to the Hollywood horror flick Dawn of the Dead, in which she also
stars. "Odeon got behind [My Life], but there's only so much you can
do when it's only playing in one theater."

In the pressroom afterwards, Telefilm executive director Richard
Stursberg responded to the actress' comments to reporters.

"I'm presuming what Sarah Polley would like is [for] her films to be
seen by people," he said. "We're not in favor of screen quotas. I
don't know what they do for you. The real way you get people into
cinemas is to make movies that people want to see."

Not just her films. ALL Canadian films.

Go to any movie theatre outside of Toronto, Montreal, or Vancouver
when it's out of film festival season; and I bet you won't find ONE
ciniplex that is playing a Canadian film. More often than not, all the
films playing are US imports. Making movies similar to the crap you'll
find Stateside is NOT the answer. Quotas and word of mouth are.

My life without me is an amazing film. I have never heard of Sarah
Polley, but I can tell you one thing I will never forget her. She
touched my heart with that performance. I lived in Los Angeles most
of my life untill 1990 when I joined the Military. I then got to see
the world and how people in other countries live. We take for granted
the most simple things in life such as this glass of water I am
drinking. I now live in Montana 60 miles from the Canadien border to
Al berta, and British Columbia. Sarah I fell in love with you.

Forever an admirering fan

Scream Television, a digital channel in Canada, has been re-airing the Friday
The 13th:
The Series on its network. The Canadian show has nothing to do with Jason
Voorhees, but
I did get to see the pilot episode last night, which shows our Sarah, very
young, clasping a
doll which is a little more than meets the eye...

It was cute...

Now I see, from this article, that Sarah must have signed a document
converting her to Islam when she got hitched to hubby David (Dawud)
Wharnsby Ali. I wonder where this leaves the twins she had with
Michael Winterbottom, Malik and little What's-'is-Name?

"Vatican Warns Catholics Against Marrying Muslims"
Fri May 14, 2004 12:43 PM ET

By Shasta Darlington
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - The Vatican warned Catholic women on Friday
to think hard before marrying a Muslim and urged Muslims to show more
respect for human rights, gender equality and democracy.

Calling women "the least protected member of the Muslim family," it
spoke of the "bitter experience" western Catholics had with Muslim
husbands, especially if they married outside the Islamic world and
later moved to his country of origin.

The comments in a document about migrants around the world were
preceded by remarks about points of agreement between Christians and
Muslims but they seemed likely to fuel mistrust between the world's
two largest religions.

The document said the Church discouraged marriages between believers
in traditionally Catholic countries and non-Christian migrants.

It hoped Muslims would show "a growing awareness that fundamental
liberties, the inviolable rights of the person, the equal dignity of
man and woman, the democratic principle of government and the healthy
lay character of the state are principles that cannot be surrendered."

When a Catholic woman and Muslim man wanted to marry, it
said, "bitter experience teaches us that a particularly careful and
in-depth preparation is called for."

It said one possible problem was with Muslim in-laws and advised
future mothers that they must insist on Church policy that children
born of a mixed marriage be baptized and brought up as Catholics.

If the marriage is registered in the consulate of a Muslim country,
the document said, the Catholic must be careful not to sign a
document or swear an oath including the shahada, the Islamic
profession of faith, which would amount to converting.

DIFFERENT APPROACHES

The document highlighted the contrasting approaches the Vatican has
taken in recent years toward Islam, which has emerged as a strong
rival for souls, especially in Africa.

Pope John Paul has broken ground in dialogue with Muslims and even
prayed in a mosque in Damascus. He won plaudits in the Muslim world
for his strong opposition to the Iraq war.

But Vatican officials and leading Catholic prelates have expressed
increasingly critical views about the spread of Islam and the
challenge this poses for Catholicism.

The Vatican's top theologian, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, said earlier
this week the West "no longer loves itself" and so was unable to
respond to the challenge of Islam, which was growing because it
expressed "greater spiritual energy."

The migration document also discouraged churches from letting non-
Christians use their places of worship.

This issue arose last month when Muslims in Spain asked to be able to
pray in Cordoba cathedral, which was once a mosque. A senior Vatican
official said this would be "problematic."
