THE MAKING OF
SAMUEL LOUNT
Writer/director Laurence Keane on location
"In their screenplay, Keane and co-writer Phil Saveth take just the right sort of liberties with the historic record to establish the social and moral dimensions of the drama. A more complex and interesting character than Davy Crockett, Samuel Lount emerges as a hero fit for grown-ups ..."
Michael Walsh Vancouver Province
"Filmed on location in New Brunswick and Ontario, Samuel Lount was produced by Toronto-born Elvira Lount, the great-great grandniece of the film's hero. She moved to British Columbia in the 1970s, where she met her life partner, independent filmmaker Laurence Keane. In 1985, they brought a defining moment in the development of Parliamentry democracy to the screen. A passionate historical drama — as well as a bit of Lount family history — it earned five 1986 Genie Award nominations."
