A periodic examination of films with Nova Scotia connections

Last weekend, John Rance talked the virtues of the Big Green Egg to so-called Egghead enthusiasts at Truro’s barbecue and fireplace store, Warmth By Design, attracting hundreds to an Egg demonstration.

The arrival of fiddlehead season is eagerly awaited by the lovers of this delicious local delicacy.

Fiddleheads are the head of the Ostrich fern (Matteuccia struthiopteris), a forest plant usually found near rivers and streams. They are most tender and flavorful in May and early June when the head of the fern is tightly coiled and deep green in colour.

If you are in the market for a idyllic Nova Scotia Northshore log cabin cottage, you might want to chat with Harold Murray.

He’s a retired Aberdeen Hospital medical specalist—and brother to famous crooner Anne Murray.

He was about to go to medical school before he was charged with murder.

Will Sandeson, 24, is charged with first degree murder of Taylor Samson, 22, on Aug. 15, 2015, after the victim allegedly went to Sandeson’s apartment to sell 20 pounds of marijuana.

They were both students at Dalhousie University, and both had promising futures.

Samson’s body has yet to be found, but his mother, Linda Boutilier, hasn’t stopped looking for her son since the day he went missing.
