« [Andrea] Dorfman couldn't afford ACTRA members, so she cast mainly amateurs actors in the film [Parsley Days]—none had ever been in a movie before. Most important to her, though, was that all of them hailed from Halifax, where the movie was shot; she thought that would add to the film's distinct East Coast flavour. The same went for the indie pop soundtrack. Dorfman's friend, Halifax music guru Colin MacKenzie, supervised the music, rounding up contributions from a who's who of local musicians—Sloan, Mike O'Neill and Julie Doiron among them. »
