ProductionThe film was influenced by the then-experimental blend of docufiction techniques innovated by films such as Nobody Waved Good-bye and À tout prendre.[1] Its script consisted solely of a 15-page story outline, around which the actors improvised their dialogue so that the film would feel like a documentary.[1] It was made on a budget of just $23,000. ReactionKnox won the Canadian Film Award for Best Actress, and Mackey won a special jury award for the film.[5] Despite favourable critical response and Knox's award win the film received only limited release; apart from the Stratford Film Festival[5] the film was never screened outside of Toronto,[4] and even CBC Television rejected the film as too experimental for a mass-market network television airing.[6] Although the film was strongly championed by The New York Times film critic Bosley Crowther, Mackey was also unable to secure a distribution deal in the United States.[1] The film was screened at the 1984 Festival of Festivals, and was later broadcast on CBC and TVOntario,[1] but was generally not widely seen until it was released on DVD in 2006.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 "Celebrated film finally gets its due".
