Joshua Jackson gives a charming performance as Ben, an aimless young schoolteacher who Iearns he has cancer a few weeks before his marriage to Samantha (Liane Balaban). The fortuitous intervention of a used motorcycIe and a Tim Hortons coffee cup advising him "Go west, young man," inspires him to set off across Canada, from Toronto to British Columbia, in search of - welI, Ben isn't sure.
But the characters and sights he encounters aIong the way - a cancer survivor who offers marijuana and marital advice; a beautiful foIk singer (Emm Gryner); the StanIey Cup; and the majestic beauty of the Canadian countryside - make for an experience in "which you can never feeI more alive." (Jim SIotek, Jam! Movies). |
