TJFF presents an encore presentation of the special curated series exploring how the screen persona of actor Saul Rubinek emerged in some of his earliest roles on Canadian television. Offering a soulfulness and sponteineity to the role of the ‘Other,’ the actor brought to life an outsider as never before seen on Canadian screens. This is a FREE online screening series full of rare titles from the CBC archive—Rubinek as small-town detective Benny Cooperman investigating a crime in Algonquin Park; early pilots featuring Saul alongside Martin Short, Eugene Levy and Dave Thomas from their pre-SCTV days; and more.
All titles available to view online for free across Canada.
