Event Description
Event type: All AgesAs celebrated as Matt Johnson has become thanks to movies like OPERATION AVALANCHE (People’s Choice Award winner at KCFF17) and BLACKBERRY, the actor, filmmaker, and all-round maverick always comes back to his roots. In this case, those roots are characters he and Jay McCarrol created almost 20 years ago for a mockumentary web series about two aspiring musicians (conveniently named Matt and Jay) who are forever trying to land a gig at Toronto’s iconic Rivoli. Regardless of whether viewers know much about the duo’s misadventures so far, they’re in for a wildly entertaining ride as Matt and Jay mount their first big-screen quest for greatness in a time-travel comedy that’s two-parts BACK TO THE FUTURE and one-part pure anarchy. The audience prize winner in TIFF’s Madness Madness programme, this is Johnson’s wildest and funniest movie to date.
