Python Hyena 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

smearcampaign3 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.

baberepellant Are you for real?Goldirocks is, without a doubt, a dismal failure as entertainment.There is nothing accurate or realistic about it. And it has no value as far as I can see. It would take way more than forty bands to save this one. More than four hundred.If the makers of this movie are actually part of the Toronto music scene, which I seriously doubt, then they are part of some warped corner of it where bands like Sticky Rice, Cheerleader and Wayne Omaha are cool. The exact opposite of reality.As for the movie; the acting is atrocious, the dialogue has never been spoken by anyone in history other than the actors, the camera work and direction are totally hopeless. The main character is completely unlikable, for crying out loud! Not a single redeeming quality! Well, she sleeps around a lot, so maybe that would appeal to a pubescent boy, but that's about it.As for rock and roll, Goldirocks offers absolutely nothing new or even interesting. Just a bunch of should-be-retired semi-has-beens-that-never-were-or-will-be.My prediction? No one involved with this will ever work again, waiting on tables notwithstanding.

theadorust 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.
