End Credits Show Notes for Wednesday April 22, 2026 (Episode #438)

This week on End Credits, we grow up. The movie this week is another coming of age story about a young person finding themselves but the twist is that it’s a Canadian movie about a Canadian in Canada. We will review Mile End Kicks, which you can now (and should) see in theatres everywhere, and we will also talk about *that* festival in France! 

This Wednesday, April 22, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Tim Phillips will discuss:

Yes We Cannes. In a couple of weeks, Hollywood heads to the south of France for the 79th annual Cannes Film Festival. What makes Cannes different? Well, it’s exclusively for people in the industry, and the press, so you can’t just line up and buy rush tickets, but in recent years it’s been more famous for how long people stand and clap at the end, or whether or not they booed. Instead, we’ll talk about some of our favourite Cannes movie premieres.

REVIEW: Mile End Kicks (2026). The year is 2011, and the place is Montreal. Aspiring Toronto Burlington music critic Grace Pine is here to find love (or at least sex) and write a book about Alanis Morrisette’s Jagged Little Pill, but sometimes important life lessons and the lead singer of an up and coming band have other ideas. Chandler Levack’s follow-up to I Like Movies is another coming of age slice from her own life, but can Levack capture that same magic, not to mention a sense of nostalgic early 21st century Canadiana, again?

End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
