Toronto Plays Itself

LENS ME YOUR EARS - A podcast by LENS ME YOUR EARS

On the latest edition of Lens Me Your Ears, we have a look at films set in Toronto, Canada's largest city and for some, The Centre of the Universe :). Ah, but we kid the T-Dot. With the new Disney/Pixar film Turning Red examining the life of a teenage girl and her Chinese-Canadian family, and an ancestral legacy that sees her turn into a giant red panda when she hits puberty, we thought we'd take a look at other films where "the city is a character" from 1979's The Silent Partner through Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World, with films by Atom Egoyan, Sarah Polley and Bruce McDonald along the way. Follow us on twitter: @Lensmeyourears and like us on Facebook!
