One Week, the motorcycle road-trip movie starring Joshua Jackson, Emm Gryner, Canada, an amazing soundtrack (and featuring cameos by Joel Plaskett and Gord Downie), is expanding to sixty-five screens across Canada today.
The film opened to a limited theatrical release a week ago, and still took in an impressive $400K at the box office, ranking it at #9 of the most-seen films in Canada last weekend.
And thanks to its crafty, fan-generated marketing campaign, One Week has also attracted the attention of the Los Angeles Times, even though the film has only been released in Canada.
The soundtrack is also a who's-who of the CBC Radio 3 playlist - Wintersleep, Stars, Great Lake Swimmers, Sunparlour Players, Patrick Watson and more - which can now be purchased as a complete soundtrack here.
One Week's director, Michael McGowan, will participate in a Q and A tonight and tomorow, March 13 and 14 for the 7:30pm showing at the Varisty Theatre in Toronto.
