The themes of “coming of age” and “staying true to one’s self” on screen are as American as white bread. Score: A Hockey Musical (as you can tell from it’s title) is as Canadian as a box of Tim-Bits. The film knows exactly what it is, it’s not funded by the National Film Board, whose sensibilities lean more towards documentary and art films, but Telefilm Canada. It’s not so much a propaganda film as it is a heritage film.
The term heritage film is commonly associated with French films that deal with the effects of colonialism. If all of the colonies are in effect “French” the question of what is French culture is raised. Canada considers itself more of a mosaic, and includes government sponsorship of cultural heritage events and programs embracing the individuality of immigrant cultures. Score embraces with some self parody the heritage of hockey,...

Looking a bit worn down from a wild weekend, Rihanna was spotted catching a flight out of McCarran Airport in Las Vegas, Nv on Sunday (September 20).
Joined by her entourage, the Barbadian beauty was dressed casually in a white top, black tights and a black cap over long red locks after hosting Katy Perry's bachelorette party the previous day.
In related news, Rihanna's name is at the center of a new lawsuit in which a scheme cost a Brazilian promotion company an estimated $5 million.
Reports tell that Unique Sports and Marketing filed the case New York County Supreme Court, alleging that they contacted Vegas Style Entertainment while attempting to book Rihanna for a string of fall shows.
Not realizing that the entertainment agents didn't represent the "Umbrella" singer - Unique lost $835,000 in which they paid for booking fees along with expected profits from ticket sales near $4 million.

Toronto -- "Score: A Hockey Musical" is to open the Toronto International Film Festival on Sept. 9.
Fest organizers tapped Canadian director Michael McGowan's music-driven homage to hockey, toplined by Olivia Newton-John and Nelly Furtado as a hockey zealot, to kick off their 35th edition with a glitzy world premiere at Roy Thomson Hall.
The coming-of-age movie portrays a sheltered 17-year-old, played by newcomer Noah Reid, going from zero to hero on the ice in a matter of weeks. Think "Glee" with sticks and skates as hockey players croon while slapping a puck round an ice rink.
"Plan for a fun night on Sept. 9," festival co-director Cameron Bailey said after choosing the Canadian pop culture crowd-pleaser with 19 original songs woven into the movie's dialogue.
The announcement of the festival's 2010 opening-night film was suitably made Wednesday morning at the Hockey Hall of Fame in downtown Toronto.
