Crime Wave

By John Paizs | 01:20:40 | Comedy, Narrative-Fiction | 1/9/1985

Sitcom noir, or maybe Tex Avery splatter. Steven desperately wants to be a "colour crime movie writer", but he has trouble with plots until an adoring fan befriends him. Through a series of adventures, and the evil Dr. Jolly, he finds the strength to go on.

Price of Daily Bread, The

By John Paskievich, Mike Mirus | 00:16:00 | Documentary | 1/1/1985

Anthony Nahuliak, his wife and daughter, farm near Hodgson in the Manitoba Interlake, on land that has been in the family for generations. Now they must sell their farm equipment, house, and land to pay the bank. This movie seems one of Paskievich's harshest yet it is also one of his most tender because it…

Dead Father, The

By Guy Maddin | 00:24:30 | Experimental, Narrative-Fiction | 1/1/1985

A young man, whose father has died, experiences an array of post-mortal brushes with his dead father. This grey comedy takes the dark subject matter and produces humorous results.

By Howard Curle, John Kozak | 00:05:30 | Narrative-Fiction | 1/1/1985

Two men attempt to accomplish a simple task - the disposing of a body.

Magdalene

By Cathy Hall | 00:06:04 | Drama, Narrative-Fiction | 1/1/1985

The emotional and mental life of a homeless bag lady obsessed with Marlene Dietrich. A comical but sympathetic glimpse into the imaginary world of a woman who is beautiful in spirit, but sad of heart. Jarringly close to our own realities, and our own limitations in life.

Dorothy Parker’s The Waltz

By Shereen Jerrett | 00:06:00 | Comedy, Narrative-Fiction | 1/1/1985

What can you say when a man asks you to dance with him? I most certainly will not dance with you, I'll see you in hell first. No, there was nothing for me to do but say I'd adore to.

Routines

By MB Duggan | 00:01:48 | Experimental, Narrative-Fiction | 1/1/1985

Performance poetry, charming crutches, blood and microphones - a typical morning routine.

Downtime

By Greg Hanec | 01:02:00 | Comedy, Drama, Narrative-Fiction | 1/1/1985

Life in Winnipeg is grim, grimy and gruesome. An austere film with touches of offbeat humour. Dark and brooding it paints a dismal picture of life for young people out on their own. The actors and words of its charactersstrangers thrust into unexpected intimacyare funny, unnerving and insightful.Considered to be the first feature film made…
