Format: DVD, I've Heard the Mermaids Singing
Chosen to premiere at the Director s Fortnight at Cannes, Patricia Rozema s debut feature won standing ovations and made its star an overnight celebrity. Awkward, shy, and delightfully funny, Polly Vandersma Sheila McCarthy is an organizationally impaired temporary assistant who finally gets her first permanent job at the age of 31. While she works for the curator of an art gallery, Polly narrates her own story, sharing the comical and bittersweet pretensions of the art world. At the same time, she reveals a special part of her own private world, taking the viewer to enchanted places in this quiet assault on the notion of authority everywhere. This film was voted by 100 International Critics as one of Canada s 10 best films ever.
