In town to promote their new album Remorsecapade, and preview their participation in Canadian Music Week, Woodhands find some time to discuss immature antics, insulting songs, and a burning desire to bang on their expensive toys like a pair of unrepentant toddlers.

Advertised as “Not Your Grandma’s Life-Drawing Class”, The Keyhole Sessions is not so much life drawing turned on its ear, as it is doubled over, tied up, and administered a consensual spank.

THE CINEFORUM EXPERIENCE: LAST NIGHT I DREAMT I MET REG HARTT

Since 1992, eccentric archivist Reg Hartt has opened his doors to lovers of rare film. With a screening room in his front parlour, he welcomes any and all curious visitors. You will know his house when you see it. There is a red neon sign in his window that blinks “Cineforum”, a Greek inscription above his door that reads “Abandon all hope, ye who enter here”, and a cast of mysterious characters that lurk in the shadowy background. Two weeks after granting us an interview, a pile of crumpled notes were found on our office doorstep, and we have dutifully transcribed them for you, on fear of mystic retribution. Enjoy.

Apparently, the title was the first thing Lars von Trier wrote down about his new film, Antichrist. Speaking during a telephone interview from his native Denmark, Lars muses about his film’s controversial title. Calling a movie Antichrist, is indeed a pretty provocative place to begin the creative process.
