Blindness- Canada's next Blockbuster?
Can you name any Canadian #1 box office hits? I can.
My Big Fat Greek Wedding made $240 million in 1992.
Norman Jewison’s The Hurricane starring Denzel Washington made $50,668,906 in 1999. But it’s not really Canadian... its not a Canuck story anyway.
Porkys made $105 million in 1982.
Can we do it again? Paul Gross and Justin Trudeau star in Paschendale which I believe hits theatres in September.
My hopes rest in the new Canadian movie, BLINDNESS
Don McKellar's screenplay adaptation of Jose Saramago's popular novel with the same title. The movie, like the book, questions what would happen to society if a super bug that causes blindness were to infect a large urban center?
