Hit Canadian Comedy Screening in Bancroft!

April 11 @ 2:00 pm - 9:00 pm EDT

$7 – $13

Playing Thursday, April 11th at 2pm and 7pm + catch a QnA with the director after the show!

A 2023 Canadian comedy whodunnit crime movie, Who’s Yer Father? stars Chris Lock as Larry Constable, a blubbering private investigator living on Prince Edward Island. He teams up with Rhonda Perry (played by Susan Kent) to investigate a black market lobster smuggling ring. It’s written by P.E.I. local Jeremy Larter and is described as a “love letter to the Maritimes.”

Premiering at the 2023 Atlantic International Film Festival, the cast also includes Jess Salgueiro, Matt Wells, Kaniehtiio Horn, and Stave Lund. It’s a cheeky story will haywire plot twists, lots of slapstick skits, silly, clever comedic moments, and lots of joy. Who’s Yer Father is the biggest Canadian film release on P.E.I. since 2003 and it’s popularity is sweeping the country! It has since been nominated for three Canadian Screen Awards and was the #2 English language Canadian comedy at the Canadian box office in 2023, just after Blackberry.

Tweed & Company is SO excited to announce that the director of Who’s Yer Father, Jeremy Larter, will be joining us for these screenings and a following QnA period!
