The Grand Seduction

Can they make a movie in Newfoundland without Gordon Pinsent? Taylor Kitsch abandons his hunk persona here to play a doctor being wooed by an outport. Kitsch notwithstanding a movie about creating employment opportunities for a remote community certainly was an employment opportunity for a parcel of Newfoundland Actors, seems only fitting. If there’s a Newfoundland cliché that gets missed I didn’t detect it. However you will look in vain for the famous recreation of the publicity shot of the three stooges with the gaping cod fish. The landlubber sick over the side in calm seas does play. All in good clean fun though the movie does begin and end with bedroom gymnastics garnering it the PG Rating.
