Terminal City 12+

📙 “What Raymond Chandler would have written if he’d lived in Vancouver.” Eden Robinson, author of Monkey Beach.Where Chandler-esque noir meets rainy Vancouver you get Terminal City. The week before WWII breaks out wealthy Pug Westwood throws a beach party: by the next morning his son Harry is dead, petty crook Emmet Fanning has fled to LA, and Emmet’s girlfriend Mia and taxi driver Dan Kearney are having a fling. Twenty years later, Emmet, now a scandalous Hollywood star, is back, his seventeen-year-old girlfriend struggling to keep him alive and sober. As his old enemies resurface Mia seeks out Dan again and asks for his help. On the corrupt, yet oddly innocent, city streets of 1950s Vancouver, cops, criminals, lovers, the wealthy and the broken play out the long-delayed finale of a deeply personal drama.
