I saw Ms. Williams chilling out at The Tampered Press back in summer 2010, most likely between takes

Toronto's extensive work on the silver screen reveals that, while we have the chameleonic ability to look like anywhere from New York City to Moscow, the disguise doesn't always hold up to scrutiny. Reel Toronto revels in digging taste of chaos tour pictures up and displaying the films that attempt to mask, hide, or—in rare cases—proudly display our city.
When this column started, there were virtually no quality movies actually set in Toronto. We d come across the odd Silent taste of chaos tour pictures Partner amidst all the faux Bostons and New Yorks we see so often, but that was about it. Well, that s changed in recent years, with the likes of Scott Pilgrim vs. The World , Chloe , and, most recently, Take This Waltz .
Sarah Polley taste of chaos tour pictures s sophomore flick debuted at TIFF last year and finally hit theatres taste of chaos tour pictures earlier this summer to much acclaim. (It s worth noting that while Chloe got more of a mixed reaction, its wintry Toronto makes a fine double bill alongside Polley s sweltering, colour-saturated city. Both involve marital taste of chaos tour pictures infidelity so they re sort of like weird mirror images of each other.)
Sometimes we feel a bit guilty doing Toronto films since it s more of a tour than a detective enterprise. But Take This Waltz is still a tour worth taking. After a prologue set in Nova Scotia, Michelle Williams and Luke Kirby naturally arrive at Pearson airport
Since we already taste of chaos tour pictures mentioned Polley s use of colour, taste of chaos tour pictures we ll demonstrate here just how deftly it s used. Note that at the beginning of the movie the house seems to be in the midst of being painted. Williams is wearing a red shirt and the house s left-hand pillar is painted yellow
Anyway, the film is very west-end centric, but sometimes the geography doesn t entirely make sense. We re not nitpicking; pointing out this stuff is why we get the big bucks! So, like, she runs into Kirby one morning and they go for an early coffee. Apparently there were no shops open between their neighbourhood and Kensington Market, because they hike all the way over to Essence of Life Organics .
When they later decide to go for martinis, taste of chaos tour pictures they end up at The Lakeview , which is hardly the most obvious place to go. But, it s cool (and friendly to film crews), local enough, and has those milkshake machines that go with the film s colour palette.
Probably the biggest leap is accepting that every morning, before starting his rickshawing, taste of chaos tour pictures Kirby goes down to the lake. It s not too far of a hike down to the Ontario Place area, but apparently he goes all the way to Kew Beach .
and then go back down to the lake for a trip across to Centre Island and a ride on the Scrambler at Centreville . Even if it s not entirely sensible, you have to concede it s a fun way for a semi-employed hipster and a semi-employed freelance journalist to spend the day.
Poor Seth Rogen! Dude kicks ass in the movie but he seems to spend all of his scenes in the house. Luckily, he does get one nice date night with his wife. They get a rickshaw ride that takes them out to College Street
and then back up to College Street for a night at the Royal Cinema . And it s playing Mon oncle Antoine , which is cool and only slightly less overtly Canuck taste of chaos tour pictures than if it were a double bill of The Sweater and Goin Down the Road .
CORRECTION: August 26, 2012, 11:50 PM This article originally stated that the scene where Williams and Rogen s characters eat dinner takes place at Perla, on College Street. The restaurant is actually La Perla, on Queen Street West, as now stated above.

I saw Ms. Williams chilling out at The Tampered taste of chaos tour pictures Press back in summer 2010, most likely between takes at the Lakeview. taste of chaos tour pictures I was working on my laptop in a corner but kept thinking, Gosh, that girl looks just like Michelle Williams. Spitting image. When I overheard her talking about what time she puts Matilda to bed, I realized it really was her. Along with hundreds of others, I later saw the College Street rickshaw filming, too. It was pretty interesting, to be honest.
