One of the artists of the moment is undoubtedly Jacob Elordi, with his starring roles from comedies on streaming platforms, no doubt the actor has come very high as it would be the most sought after names for new Hollywood projects, and is that anywhere we turn he will be present representing a new generation of actors, as we can also remember Timotheé Chalamet and Zendaya.
Based on Russell Banks’ novel “Foregone,” the new picture, being marketed by Arclight Films at the European picture Market, is around the final days of documentary filmmaker Leonard Fife. The movie stars Jacob Elordi, Uma Thurman, and Michael Imperioli.
Here’s the official synopsis of the movie:
“Oh, Canada depicts the story of famed documentary filmmaker Leonard Fife, an American leftist who fled to Canada as a young man to avoid the Vietnam War draft. As Fife battles cancer in Montreal during his twilight years, he agrees to a final interview. Intent on revealing his long-guarded secrets and demystifying his mythologized life, Fife’s shocking confession unfolds amidst the presence of his wife, Emma (Uma Thurman), his devoted former student Malcolm MacLeod (Michael Imperioli), and a team of filmmakers capturing this profound moment.”
Schrader the director of the film, talked to Variety last month about his upcoming film:
“We were all dealing with mortality issues as Leonard does in the film. You get to the point where you wonder how many bullets you have left in the gun,” “Oh, Canada!.” “Fife is dying and realizing that his whole life has been built on lies and he is trying to confront himself before he dies.
