Quote:
"I love the films we [the National Film Board of Canada] produce, and I encourage our filmmakers, but their films do tend to be more serious and art-driven. Just plain laugh-out-loud comedy is not what we do all the time anymore. Alison [Snowden] and David [Fine] are masters of a certain kind of dry comedy that I think the NFB needed."
