take off

honored to be playing at the 2010 Toronto Jewish Film Festival. Curator Ellie Skrow has assembled a really cool slate of films, including my favorite movie about Cleveland, American Splendor (Harvey Pekar will also be there). Read her “Curator’s Notes” for a very nice summary of the theme of this year’s festival. The real treat though is Last Son will be introduced by Henry Mietkiewicz (!) the star/Star reporter who got the last (and most in-depth) interview with Joe Shuster before he died. Joe, of course, was born in Toronto, so I’m so glad we can play somewhere where he gets the spotlight. And if that wasn’t enough, they are also playing some of the Fleischer cartoons on the BIG SCREEN! Win win.
