Condolences...

A certain someone I know who specializes in 1970s Canadian cinema in the wilds of England is probably going about his academic pursuits with a heavy heart today. This is because of the announcement yesterday that that Bob Clark, the director of what still is the highest grossing Canadian film, Porky's, died last week. Playback reports that Clark was in preproduction for the remake of his 1972 film Children Shouldn't Play with Dead Things and was set to meet with Quentin Tarantino, who had expressed interest in the film. Oh what could have been.
