00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:23.500
Wow.

00:00:27.200 --> 00:00:28.700
Christmas. Thank you.

00:00:33.500 --> 00:00:35.300
It's good to be back in Toronto.

00:00:35.300 --> 00:00:36.100
It's it's please.

00:00:36.100 --> 00:00:37.600
I'll be really pretty.

00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:48.900
We're Young and Sinclair.

00:00:52.400 --> 00:00:55.400
All the way down to eat Center.

00:00:57.600 --> 00:00:59.600
Occasionally Kensington Market.

00:01:06.500 --> 00:01:10.200
Thanks go. I'm just normally, I'm the guy at the podium who hands

00:01:10.200 --> 00:01:11.100
these things out.

00:01:12.800 --> 00:01:15.000
And I got pretty good at it.

00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:18.300
That the truck is he hold

00:01:20.900 --> 00:01:21.700
Does it hold?

00:01:26.800 --> 00:01:32.400
Apart from being a part of some pretty impressive and talented

00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:34.200
Ensemble. Casts

00:01:35.500 --> 00:01:42.100
I think that the last time that I waited to hear my name,

00:01:42.100 --> 00:01:47.700
called allowed to receive an award was in grade 4.

00:01:49.600 --> 00:01:52.700
And it was from the Peewee bowling league.

00:01:56.400 --> 00:01:57.400
Oh wait, it gets better.

00:01:57.400 --> 00:01:59.000
It it was a little cup.

00:01:59.000 --> 00:01:59.900
It was about, yay, high.

00:01:59.900 --> 00:02:02.000
And it it had the words

00:02:03.500 --> 00:02:05.500
Hi game, handicap.

00:02:06.500 --> 00:02:07.600
Engraved on it.

00:02:07.600 --> 00:02:10.100
And to this day, I still don't know what that means.

00:02:11.200 --> 00:02:13.800
But my mom said it was a major Awards.

00:02:15.300 --> 00:02:19.900
Also engraved on the plaque was the name.

00:02:19.900 --> 00:02:22.200
Brian Foster.

00:02:24.700 --> 00:02:26.400
The Brian, if you're in the house,

00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:31.800
you can pick up your janky 45 Cheryl trophy at the kochek

00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:32.400
after the show.

00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:33.400
This one's mine.

00:02:41.300 --> 00:02:49.200
That was a funny trip down memory lane for me watching it now

00:02:49.200 --> 00:02:59.100
about all I could see was a wide-eyed hair guy thinking

00:02:59.100 --> 00:03:03.400
so sure. Do hope they don't find me out yet.

00:03:04.900 --> 00:03:10.700
If it's true will you know if it's true that you're only as good

00:03:10.700 --> 00:03:13.200
as the people who you work with,

00:03:13.200 --> 00:03:20.900
then this guy is really cool creative and very very lucky.

00:03:22.300 --> 00:03:26.200
Answering the stage with Darren Aronofsky and Sam Hunter.

00:03:34.500 --> 00:03:39.200
Art is about taking a risk and you should know that they took

00:03:39.200 --> 00:03:41.800
a chance on me and I will be forever grateful to them.

00:03:42.900 --> 00:03:44.200
The whale.

00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:50.700
It's a Redemption story about a guy called Charlie and he's

00:03:50.700 --> 00:03:52.800
gone through significant Life Changes.

00:03:53.800 --> 00:03:58.000
And he's forgotten about who he is to the ones he loves and he's

00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:03.300
he's running out of time to tell them that if you can at all.

00:04:04.600 --> 00:04:11.600
But she has a superpower, Charlie can see the good in others.

00:04:11.600 --> 00:04:13.800
When they can't see that in themselves.

00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:17.500
You bring that out in them.

00:04:18.200 --> 00:04:21.800
And I am a firm believer that we need a little bit more of that

00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:22.300
in this world.

00:04:24.400 --> 00:04:28.900
Because it's the audience that gives Cinema life.

00:04:28.900 --> 00:04:35.400
So I must thank you for keeping me in the job that I love

00:04:35.400 --> 00:04:38.100
because it's nice work.

00:04:38.100 --> 00:04:38.800
If you can get it,

00:04:48.900 --> 00:04:52.800
Thank you to everyone that Tiff especially Cameron Bailey.

00:04:55.200 --> 00:04:59.400
I just want, you know how deeply I appreciate this affirmation.

00:05:00.200 --> 00:05:01.500
Thank you. Thank you.

00:05:01.500 --> 00:05:03.000
Thank you for this tribute Award performance.

00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:06.100
It means a heck of a lot more to me than a participation.

00:05:06.100 --> 00:05:10.000
Bowling trophy. One more thing.

00:05:12.900 --> 00:05:15.300
I know not all that may be coming,

00:05:15.300 --> 00:05:16.700
but be it?

00:05:16.700 --> 00:05:17.300
What it will.

00:05:17.300 --> 00:05:19.900
I will go to it laughing

00:05:21.500 --> 00:05:23.900
That was our friend Herman Melville in 1851.

00:05:25.200 --> 00:05:27.900
It's just an up cycled for you by your friend,

00:05:27.900 --> 00:05:29.100
by Brian washer.

00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:32.000
Toronto, International Film Festival 2022.

00:05:32.100 --> 00:05:33.700
Thank you. Have a laugh on me.

00:05:33.700 --> 00:05:35.000
You burned it.

00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:35.900
Thank you.
