Capturing George

Smith, Scott, (film director.). Ma, Yves J., (film producer.). Friesen, Tracey, (film producer.). National Film Board of Canada (Montreal), (film producer.).

Summary: George F. Walker's career has spanned almost four decades, more than 20 plays, and a number of award-winning television series, but Rolly and Stevie (from Walker's play Criminal Genius) have succeeded in tying the notoriously elusive dramatist down. To a chair. With lots of rope. Director Scott Smith's wicked reversal of theatrical order, puts Walker in the centre of one of his own creations. .
