The film is being directed by Michael McGowan (One Week, Saint Ralph) and will open in theatres Oct. 22. It will be shot in Toronto from Monday (Feb. 1) to March 8, according to the Georgia Straight. The Toronto Sun reports Score: A Hockey Musical will be shot in Nathan Phillips Square, Wychwood Park, the Art Gallery Of Ontario and Weston Arena. Score: A Hockey Musical will also star Olivia Newton-John of Grease fame, singer/songwriter Mark Jordan, Stephen McHattie (Watchmen, Summer's Blood), Allie MacDonald and Noah Reid. In the film, Reid plays a troubled teenager who becomes a hockey star after playing pick-up with local players played by Bidini and Workman. He then struggles with his own fame. Bidini is obsessed with hockey. Evidence of this can be seen on every Rheostatics album, his recently released The Land Is Wild debut with BidiniBand and with his Five Hole: Tales Of Hockey Erotica project.

The film – which tells the story of a teenage hockey phenom who goes from obscurity to overnight fame – also stars a slew of Canadian talent. Among those are singer/songwriter Marc Jordan (whose composing credits include Rod Stewart’s “Rhythm of My Heart” and Cher’s “Taxi Taxi”), newcomers Noah Reid and Allie MacDonald, along with cameos by music artists Nelly Furtado, Dave Bidini, Hawksley Workman and John McDermott, journalists George Stroumboulopoulos and Evan Solomon, sports anchor Steve Kouleas, hockey dad Walter Gretzky and hockey star Theo Fleury. Unlike other musicals, the story doesn’t stop just for the sake of a song. Instead, the lyrics (written by McGowan) drive the plot. There are 20 original songs, among them one called “Darryl vs. the Kid” by Barenaked Ladies, as well as “Hugs” by Olivia Newton-John, Amy Sky and Marc Jordan, and five songs on which Hawksley Workman contributed.

For over a decade, the CPCC has represented copyright holders before the Copyright Board of Canada. The Board establishes the levies that may be collected after trial-like hearings where experts, representing music rights holders and organizations that represent consumers and businesses that sell leviable blank media, present evidence and are cross-examined. The private copying levy has been an important part of the Canadian copyright regime since 1999, when the first private copying tariff was certified by the Copyright Board, following amendments made to the Copyright Act (the “Act”) in 1997 to allow for a levy to be placed on blank audio recording media. Currently, the levy only applies to blank CDs and MiniDiscs, at a rate of 29 cents per unit, and is paid by manufacturers and importers of these blank media to the CPCC for distribution to rights holders. The private copying levy has provided an effective mechanism whereby consumers are allowed to make copies of music for their personal use without infringing copyright and, in exchange, music creators receive royalties that recognize the value of private copies of their work.

  • Barenaked Ladies Write Song for SCORE: a HOCKEY MUSICAL
    STAR PR Tel: (416) 488-4436 Fax: (416) 488-8438 E-Mail: [email protected] _______________________________________________________________ Barenaked Ladies write song for SCORE: A HOCKEY MUSICAL Barenaked Ladies – the multi-platinum-selling band whose 11th studio album All in Good Time streets March 23rd – have written a song for Michael McGowan’s Score: A Hockey Musical, which stars Olivia Newton-John, as well as Canadian music artists Nelly Furtado, Marc Jordan, Hawksley Workman and Dave Bidini, and newcomers Noah Reid and Allie MacDonald. The film is shooting in Toronto until March 8. The BnL’s song is sung by Reid, Workman and Bidini in the film’s first few scenes, where 17-year-old Farley (Reid) is playing shinny with the neighborhood rink rats (Workman, Bidini, among others). Little do they know that Farley’s puck-handling skills – much to the dismay of his intellectual parents (Newton-John and Jordan) – will send him from obscurity to overwhelming fame within a matter of weeks. The song’s lyrics are co-written by McGowan and the BnL. As a huge fan of the BNL, Michael McGowan says, “Barenaked Ladies were the first musicians I approached about being involved with the film. The group immediately understood what I was trying to achieve and generously agreed to be a part of it. What they delivered musically far surpassed my already high expectations." Although international stars, the BnL (Ed Robertson, Jim Creeggan, Kevin Hearn and Tyler Stewart) are still based out of their hometown Toronto. The film – which combines our national sport with musical numbers – includes Nelly Furtado as an ardent hockey fan and Allie MacDonald is Farley’s best friend.

    Theatrical Booking Festival Booking and Contact: Publicity Contact: Clemence Taillandier / Zeitgeist Films Nadja Tennstedt / Zeitgeist Films 212-274-1989 x18 212-274-1989 x15 [email protected] [email protected] a zeitgeist films release act of god a film by Jennifer Baichwal Is being hit by lightning a random natural occurrence or a predestined event? Accidents, chance, fate and the elusive quest to make sense out of tragedy underpin director Jennifer Baichwal’s (Manufactured Landscapes) captivating new work, an elegant cinematic meditation on the metaphysical effects of being struck by lightning. To explore these profound questions, Baichwal sought out riveting personal stories from around the world—from a former CIA assassin and a French storm chas- er, to writer Paul Auster and improvisational musician Fred Frith. The philosophical anchor of the film, Auster was caught in a terrifying and deadly storm as a teenager, and it has deeply affected both his life and art: “It opened up a whole realm of speculation that I’ve continued to live with ever since.” In his doctor brother’s laboratory, Frith experiments with his guitar to demonstrate the ubiquity of electricity in our bodies and the universe. Visually dazzling and aurally seductive, Act of God singularly captures the harsh beauty of the skies and the lives of those who have been forever touched by their fury. DIRECTOR’S NOTES I studied philosophy and theology before turning to documentary and, in some ways, the questions I was drawn to then are the ones I still grapple with now, although in a different context. Two of these, which specifically inform this film, are the relationship between meaning and randomness and the classical problem of evil.
