Eric McCormack and Carly Pope in a scene from Textuality.
I chatted with Carly Pope this morning about Textuality, starring in a film alongside fellow Vancouverite Eric McCormack, and what it's like wearing her Canuck pride while she's in Toronto.
Along the way she happened to mention that her Blackberry recently got hacked and that she is in the process of having to deal with the exquisite agony of re-programing a brand new telephone (and the unexpected upside over "social pruning," but more on that later).
This is how Carly likes to get attention when she is sans phone. Having fun on set, Day 3.
In keeping with the theme of new telephones and texting (the movie is called Textuality, after all) I asked her what the first thing she would text and to whom she would send it if she was, somehow, magically gifted a brand new Blackberry Bold 9780.
Blackberry Bold 9780. Pretty.
She gave me her answer to that question (and oh-so-many more), which you can read about in a few days.
In the meantime, you really ought to ponder the same thing: If you were magically gifted a Blackberry Bold 9780, what is the first thing you'd text and to whom? Take a second (or two, if you're creative) before leaving your comment below.
The winning comment will be chosen by none other than the esteemed director of Textuality (and my buddy) Warren Sonoda (Cooper's Camera)! In other words, make your comment count, people! It better be totally hilarious, profoundly thoughtful, dirty(ish) or perhaps a mash-up of everything. Winner will be contacted via email. Contest ends on April 25 at 5:00 pm.

Good luck!
