Run, don’t walk, to see this movie. One of the best I’ve seen this year. Completely inspiring and hilarious. Quite a guy, that Wayne White. Where can I buy one of his paintings reasonably priced?

It is quite good, I recommend it to anyone. After it screened here in Vancouver, we had a Skype chat with Wayne and Neil, the director. I felt like I was living in the future.

Saw it at the Toronto HotDocs film festival and it was just joyous. It will make you so, so happy. Also, Wayne White is married to Mimi Pond, who is a goddess.
