Big News From Grand Rock started as a five minute pitch at TIFF in 2009 and turned into a five year production. Now the Canadian comedy is set to roll out across the country this weekend. The film, shot in Midland, Ontario, follows a small town newspaper editor who decides to fabricate headlines based off of popular movies in order to drum up business.
We talked to director Daniel Perlmutter and star Ennis Esmer about Big News From Grand Rock and the benefits of shooting in a small town like Midland, Ontario.
