Goldirocks (2003): Dir: Paula Tiberius / Cast: Sasha Ormond, Greg Legros, Dominick Abrams, Laura Kim, Megan Dunlop: Rock satire of Goldilocks and the Three Bears only this time Goldi meets three young musicians and spends a consider amount of time with all three of them. She works at a coffee shop but dreams of stage and stardom and moves in with three young male musicians. Repetitious sexual flings as Goldi becomes involved with all three. Myles is quite cold towards her but the crowds are bigger with her. Directed by Paula Tiberius who gives the film an appropriate documentary feel in the This is Spinal Tap tradition. She gives insight into the music business and the egos involved. The band is purely in the punk rock scene with the female lead styled similar to that of Avril Lavigne. Sasha Ormond as Goldi brings the yearning for success coming off a mediocre job. Her flings with the boys are more a mockery and should have been handled better. Greg Legros as Myles learns that even though Goldi stole the show, perhaps he need look into the reality that he isn't the band's strongest element. Other casting include Dominick Abrams and Laura Kim. Does the fairy tale element work? It will likely turn off those looking for mature films regarding the music scene. Otherwise it is a comical look into the ambitions of getting into the industry. Score: 7 / 10

okay, so the script is terrible and the conversation is very unrealistic in parts. okay, some of the supporting characters are disappointing, if not embarrassing. it happens.you have to give credit to the director for what she was going for. and you have to give credit to the main actors, Sasha Ormond specifically. she managed to take a dismal script and make it amusing. and she is an absolute pleasure to watch.if you can shake off the crappy parts, this film actually has a great insight into the Toronto music scene (at least part of it).i would recommend it to anyone. it's typical of Canadian indie film in that there are pieces lacking... but it's up there with the good ones.

This film contained an interesting outlook on the harshness of the rock and roll business. It features a large variety of artists with varying degrees of exposure. The story line is weak at times, but the point gets across very effectively. I think this movie set could have been located anywhere, such as New York, Chicago, L.A. etc. and the bands would have faced the same challenges. The fact that it was filmed in Toronto makes it more palatable, because I am Canadian. The main actor/singer Shasa Ormond (Goldi) has potential both as an actor and singer. Hopefully we will be seeing more of her talents in the near future. It was a fun movie to watch and I am looking forward to the release of the DVD.

Saw the film at the NSI film exchange here in Winnipeg.It was truly amazing. I really enjoyed it and so did everyone else I was with. It includes some great music (40 bands either appear in or are musically featured in the film) This is definitely a film I hope to purchase a copy of when it is released. The film paints a great (I assume accurate as the film makes grew up in the scene) picture of the Toronto rock scene. It's films like this one that prove Canadian cinema is no less in quality than any from around the world.
