VANCOUVER COURIER: Film festival gets anti-romantic with Random Acts
Amazon falls director returns to VIFF
By Cheryl Rossi
September 19, 2012
The dinner conversation in an opening scene of Random Acts of Romance is so awkward it's easy to assume Holly (Laura Bertram) and David (Robert Moloney) are on a first date.
But viewers soon learn they're newlyweds.
It's one of the many twists and turns in the anti-romantic comedy that premieres at the Vancouver International Film Festival.
Random Acts of Romance revolves around two couples with faltering relationships and the pot dealer, wacked-out receptionist and playboy who get tangled in their lives...
... Random Acts of Romance pairs Amanda Tapping (Sanctuary and Stargate SG-1) with film and TV actor Zak Santiago, and Robert Moloney (currently in the Arts Club's Clybourne Park) with Laura Bertram. Katharine Isabelle plays Bud, Sonja Bennett plays the receptionist and Ted Whittall plays the womanizer.
The film's score includes songs by local bands Mother Mother and Sex with Strangers and dinner dates are shot at the Waldorf Hotel.
... VIFF runs Sept. 27 to Oct. 12 with nearly 400 short and feature-length films from 75 countries and 107 Canadian films and co-productions. For more information, see viff.org.
