Whitewash is an ambitious, if decidedly problematic debut Canadian feature that’s arriving in theatres at the perfect time.
With films coming to home video two days this week (Tuesday and Friday) here's part one of our look at the latest releases including Beasts of the Southern Wild, Killer Joe, Total Recall, Premium Rush, and Arbitrage.

Enter for a chance to win one of ten pairs of tickets to see an advance screening of Killer Joe in Toronto or Vancouver on Thursday, August 9th at 10:00pm.
