the gentle soul, owner of the general store and poor husband stuck with his weird
choice, Mr. Oleson. Did you know that he had the lead part in the lovely Canadian
M.O.W. titled A DAY IN A LIFE?

THE FUNNY TWIST OF LIFE : BULL's wife in real life, BARBARA COLLENTINE stepped in to
save the day when the GLORIA STUART from the Titanic who was set to play in the
movie, was kept in bed with a bad flu two days before the shoot. As they say, the
show must go on, and Mrs. Collentine did a wonderful job. It also created a one in a
lifetime moment having real partners in life BULL and COLLENTINE together as the
leads of this movie.

You will fall in love with this wonderful cast of old-timers as they are set to
charm just about everyone. Some of the best veteran Canadian actors are featured in
this lovely tale on self-discovery at any age. Among them, late EMILE GENEST in one
of his very last roles for the small screen. GENEST was a monument in Canada having
played in over 133 films among which some for Walt Disney in the early days.
Sidekicks VERNON CHAPMAN (respected old-timer actor, stage director and writer) and
JOY COGHILL (Canadian Order of Canada for her stage work) are just a real joy to
watch.

Based in Montreal, Canadian born poet and director and independant producer Jean
Mercier is better known for 2 lovely family series he wrote, produced and sold
internationally (A HEARTBEAT AWAY and MY HOMETOWN) to over 50 territories.

A DAY IN A LIFE is no exception. This film is an evergreen production. It will stay
with you like your favorite song for a very very long time.
