from Guelph Politicast · host Adam A. Donaldson
This week on End Credits, we work smarter and party harder. Since this episode intersects with the start of our local documentary film festival we will talk about documentaries you can watch that don't require a festival pass, but they do maybe require a streaming subscription. Speaking of streaming, there's a party on Amazon Prime and we're inviting ourselves to check it out. This Wednesday, November 4, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and, Candice Lepage will discuss: Doc Plan. This week, the latest edition of the Guelph Film Festival begins, and it will bring some cool new documentaries from across Canada and around the world that you will be able to see with a crowd. And yet, in this steaming era, there are a great many documentaries that you can see this very minute on one of the numerous available apps, free or otherwise. In honour of GFF, we will look at some of our favourite docs on our favourite (?) steamers. Hedda (2025). Hedda is one of the great roles in theatre, but it's safe to say that you've never seen a Hedda quite like this. Director Nia DaCosta has reteamed with the star of her breakthrough film - Tessa Thompson - to reimagine Henrik Ibsen's classic play about a party with a lot of drama and the hostess with the mostess churning it all up. DiCosta is a filmmaker with a lot of promise, and Thompson is an engaging star, so can the two of them together cook up something new, strange and interesting with a theatrical classic? End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
